Paulette Calasibetta Poet Cinquain

Night Sky

Night sky
                                      A velvet drape
                                Pinned with clustered stars
                               Celestial little diamond gems
                                            Aloft

Christy Stover December 28, 2016 at 10:39 AM A wonderful poem, Paulette. Eloquent and beautiful. It paints the background for so many stories, it feels like below the poem with an arrow pointing up it should say "insert your fantasy here". Truly excellent.
