Constellations Poems - Poems about Constellations

If I could catch the stars in a mason jar would it be enough to prove myself? I don't want to be here anymore. I want to be up in space where all of the fireflies reside. They don't care if I'm not good enough. ...

These past few weeks, Orion’s been making his steady descent down the horizon. This occurs yearly, one thing you can count on through the world’s unending turbulence.

Ursula, oh Ursula As constellations go Ursa Major in the sky Forever do you glow. ________________________ Onto a world you gaze upon Your perch upon a star Lovingly you're watching me A dear friend from afar. ________________________ Ursula, dear Ursula The heavens cry out, too For nothing in the sky Is quite as beautiful as you. ________________________ Where quasars leap into a sea Of nebulizing gas And galaxies remain unformed Waiting for you...

Train bypassing just over the rivers bend Sturdiest and unpromising of bridges, carry my feet along your lumber Steal away the time I should be an honorable member of society Keep me as your own and offer me company as you do the passing trains Just before the sunrise do your wood beams greet the world, before those of...

Be an astrologer of intense curiosity, sit down and admire the nightly wonders extending beyond sight and boundary; constellations are myriads of stars! Ah, the weak ones fall out and become comets, crossing stellar skies, shedding sparkles of silver; the stronger ones stay firm and don't show fear: they have no urge to leave the glorious Heavens!

Midnight drive in absent minded dark Where wood poles are magnetic Where all the cardinal directions pull towards, The iron inside my heart burns to burst from my chest I have led all the metals and minerals inside of me To someplace astray I took a dizzying route I ambled from star to star To carve out incomprehensible constellations...

I’m in the moonlight baring my dreams to the stars; I hope they explode with the desire in my heart; The power to turn the tide; Such a daring feat, holding all of my wishes; They survive the ride; Turmoil turns them into fire burning the darkest of doubts; Silent and naked, there’s no need to hide myself; A crater holds me it’s...

A dot to dot for all to see Rotating across the world Everyone see's it differently Depends which way you're twirled You can play even in slippers I connect Orion to his belt Trace a mighty Leo's mane Draw Hercules with his pelt Then I'm interrupted by a plane Right through Hydra's flippers Link the horns to Taurus And Pegasus to his wings A shell for Delphinus...

Telling Time at Midnight David J Walker reclaiming night bright elevations rearranging parked stars in distant constellations i am dumbstruck gazing up at the answers to questions we have yet to ask the clock tower pinnacle points to the heavens Striking each chime on time and lingers at midnight hidden from the morning sun calling revolving dissolving before the dawn...

Beyond the Evening Sky David J Walker Wide open The pupils of the universe Captures the imagination of the Evening sky Nothing between the bare brown dirt of the Earth And the heavens above the portal named Eternity Encumbers gentle true spirits reaching for Stored truths yet untold One by one The constellations come Into view A step beyond the Evening Sky Exposing...

Far off Constellations David J Walker It’s not me It’s the judgment I never see But can still hear The chitter chatters Of muffled voices That scatters into A bust of Swahili Or Farsi Or Gaelic for all that matters I can clearly hear it in my head Those words That might have been said Might have lied Might have died...

Maybe one day. One moment in space, Where time can finally slow. And the stars, may they align. They can finally be together. Staring; drawing the line. Following the big dipper, The tip pointing to their constellation....

Under the Constellations David J Walker We live under the same stars Whose distance measured in Years has not changed While our favorite Fortune teller asks about the past And says soothes about tomorrow Augmenting truths about the sorrows of life And how we might find joy in them Anyway This old animal we call the body Will return it’s borrow minerals in...
