Space Between Stars

as with space between stars time stands still ~ rise and fall: breath/ecstacy ~ watching, in turn one another sleeping an emptiness of thought nocturne alchemy of everything surrounded by nothing

Haha nice to hear! I put myself on the spot when I run a contest, I wasn't sure if this was too simple but I quite liked it :)

A poem of metaphorical perspective Dilly, you are so good at these, as if you just let your pen mull over the universe with idle abandon, yet always seem to deliver real depth and meaning, even if it’s everything only surrounded by nothing, brilliant, cheers David

I'm getting truly spoiled now in this thread. There's just the right level of not thinking for poetry to take shape in my mind. Maybe it's the same principles as a seance but without the ghosts :) thank you for your encouraging words, I'm delighted this one landed well

Dear DD, Ahhh the infinite vastness of shared moments. I loved how your metaphors and rhythmic pacing beautifully convey the timeless nature of connection, blending the physical and metaphysical in a tender nocturnal tableau. A Fav and a Winner!! Autumn Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel

A lot to like in this description - thank you :) another fav - hurray! Tender nocturnal tableau was exactly what I was going for, but didn't expect such an exquisite description. Thanks for your support, appreciated :)

"of everything surrounded by nothing" that line alone should get this a POTD nod and a FAVE as it will stay with me...for...F-N ever

Aww look at you being all kind to me! It'll go to my head John, you know I think I'm brushing shoulders with a celebrity when you stop by :) thanks for the fave. Maybe we should start announcing your POTD anyway - pretty sure your algorithm is more accurate haha. I'll consider myself a winner :)

Dear DD, I absolutely love your prompt, as a stargazer, i often think of what flows between stars, and more, and youv written on your own prompt very well. Youv used words that fit this theme so well! I especially also love “ nocturne alchemy of everything surrounded by nothing” what an ending! I often think that. Pleasure reading your thoughts woven in a poetic manner for your own prompt! I bet you will get many brilliant entries for this. Sending you light always
