Russell Sivey Poet Verse

Pursuit of Stardust

For centuries that see stardust
Fear blinds this sky without a gust
My heart eludes crushing blow
Stare at the heavens - I know
Falling down the fog darkens
Illusions fill my burdens
For centuries that see stardust
Fear blinds this sky without a gust

Russell Sivey

Lucilla Carrillo July 7, 2013 at 11:58 AM As always, this is very nice. I love poems about Stardust. They are like something magical. Thanks for reading my poem ( Family ) and answering my question. I know that God is the answer. I pray to Him all the time. I don't wish for no one to go through what I have gone through. Thank you..... Lucilla

Sara Kendrick July 5, 2013 at 6:51 AM Interesting form..Reads like a winning contest entry..Enjoyed reading this morn..Thanks for the visits to my poems..Your comments are valuable to me..I appreciate you taking time to read and comment..With this form one would have to choose wisely words that have many rhyming counterparts so that one would not run out of a rhyme..I paint myself in the corner sometimes ..Sara
