I Am Indigo
Each night in the heavens I am reprised.
On darkest evenings, I am not disguised.
The beauty of my color is greatly prized.
I am a blend of blue-violet ~ Indigo skies.
In the deepest shade of my lovely hue,
I am a calming balm when you feel blue.
Moonlight's glow will enhance your view
of me before sunlight dries morning dew.
I

Bright Twinkling Star Of The Night
Bright twinkling star of the night,
you validate that we have sight.
From Source you shine on every land,
It’s the Source that created man.
Just as your light keeps on burning,
Source gives man a mind discerning.
A mind that also keeps on learning,
sharing truth to feed our yearning.
Is it possible we are light?
Will the Source give us an insight?

A Night Sky Affair
A silvery dream upon the night sky
Shining betwixt the tiny shimmers
Queen of the dark alam is she,
Beauty resting upon her in sanctity
That mere words can’t help but flatter
Brimming with epics at her flower beds
That the poets sing praises
But none versed enough
To match her luminous attire
Her light, a divine compassion
Enlightening lost hearts,
Blistering romantic rivers in every

In Stars Above
I’m in an open field,
beneath the heavens and the stars.
I pour out my heart in song,
while the river of my grief flows with turbulence and turmoil.
I look up at the sky;
in the stars, I see hope.
In the moving clouds, I perceive a passage,

Nightscape
Like tufts of cotton colored red and rosy
And scattered through the baby sky at light
Eve’, twilight clouds are whirling around the white
moon, orbiting their spoke, all lush and lazy;
Or strands of cloth sent fluttering a’mosey
through late afternoon drowsying near night,
and circling about, like crimson kites in flight,
a beaming moon, swirling afloat and hazy;
The heavens,

My Words
As my words "cascade" off my tongue,
onto the "myriad" of blank pages.
Each letter will slowly "slither,"
slither into a "serpentine" of sentences.
As I stop to read,
will the pages "lilt" to me?
With tired eyes I see a "nebula" bright night,
as I look out my huge window at the "lunar" light.

A Starry Eyed Glistening Glide
A cascade of swirls curled in the sky.
Enveloping a host of ghostly nebula galaxies,
glowing like a myriad of phosphorous flares,
sent aloft to glisten in starry, starry eyes.
The moon was off
the scene somewhere,
humming to itself,
the haunting mantra lilt
of a lunar lullaby,
only it knows can put a smile,
on its pocked blotched face.
When the

Half Moon
The pale half-moon,
like a swag of sheerest organdy,
adorns the sky...
an ornamental drape
on an ethereal window.

Beyond the stars
when night rolls in
and silence falls
the moon beckons
its haunting call
the wind stirs scents
jasmine and sea
darkness descends
otherworldly
beyond the stars
the cosmos vast
we wonder how
the dice is cast
what is beyond
way out yonder
one knows not what
spell they're under
beyond the veil
of velvet black
hope flickers through
a little crack
