Joanna Daniel Poet Fibonacci

Saudade of Stars

pale
stars
twinkle
wistfully
weaving timeworn tales 
with magic moonbeams and stardust
seeped in nostalgic reveries across the dark space

children stargaze as mothers create myths 
about how their ancestors watch over them

lovers sit under the stars listening to the silver
serenade of midnight, where soft secrets 
remain unspoken in the still silence

and a poet pens pensive verses about 
the inky moonlight, and the muted starlight 
in the velvety darkness, as the silken 
shadows dance, creating halcyon 
hallucinations of celestial serenity.

Hiya Sharma September 15, 2026 at 4:37 AM Wowwwzieez this is just so ethereal and mesmeric! I loveeee the embellished imagery throughout.. "timeworn tales" and those children drifting in nostalgic reveries with their mothers, ahhh, so heartfelt and soulful every line is! And I absolutely adore the flow of your words dear Joanna, Fibonacci is a very tricky form when it comes to the pace of words n flow n i must say that yours just is so smooth! Your verses although pensive feel like a prayer sent to the stars and beyond! Congratulations on your beautiful placement in my contest! Keep writinnnn and shininnn 🌙✨🍁🍂💫
