The Trails of Sanity
Why do I care if the disturber carries on
Why is it I cannot just wait it out, bide my time
Be more mindful, try and bond
Embrace what I don’t understand
Welcome the scorching taste in my mouth
I wait, I watch, and watch and wait
what seems a millennium
The afterglow of embers still burn
Just sit tight…
The day ends with a tug on the swatch
of the backpack, I doff it off my shoulders
I hear the trifles start up once more behind me
As my eyes wander upwards
As the Rigel star taps into my soul
As I surrender inward, a whispering voice
cues consolingly…
Here you are
Mind at ease

Oh, joy! at the night sky
And the wonder it declares.
How flirtatious! How they flare –
The many stars on high!
There's Castor and Pollux
And Rigel and Betelgeuse
And look! – Aldebaran bids adiós
As he swaggers west.

In the hunter’s leg,
With full magnitude;
I watch Rigel there,
Always shining through.
You’re my lucky star,
The brightest of all;
To see the Orion’s Belt,
I wish to be tall.
In the stellar cloth,
Of the darkest night;
I’m always outdoors,
To enjoy the star’s flight.

Star
Twinkling,
Brighter more;
Blossoming like
Sakura buds, anxiety fading,
Pacifying the tempest within me,
Soundly sleeping,
Making each,
Moment

No matter how high I jump I
can't reach u.
I love u so much but u
wouldn't digest this because of
the other little stars that try to
have my light to at least
shine.
They were falling in the
blackhole.
Remember the blackhole
absorbs all the light like
drowning man trying to
destroy.
In my world everything is
about u, even the big dipper
points to U.
u're the brightest Rigel, u light
my life.
Whether I'm north or south
u're visible everywhere, that's
why my mind is programmed
to U.
There may be 7 shiny stars but
they can't be u, Orion.
Only u have the distinctness to
appeal to my exciting view.
Trust me, my eyes stay on u all
through the night no one can
beat that.
And if staring at other stars
makes me loose u, hunt down
insecurity
Because u're incomparable
with no competition and I love
none like u.
Nonetheless, I'm ready to
accept November to April isn't
the whole year,
One day u'll no longer be
there and if destiny has it,
I'll take a place in the sky with
u
some day.

BON VOYAGE ---
" let him sink ,
let him rest
he has worked hard
to make it to west"
" its turn now for moon to rise
to make his way from paradise
he would rise for the occasion
help u know ur position
would see him coming from east
just thank him n smile atleast"
" sparkling the sky
with an atti of never to die
u would always see Mr. Star
hes never too far"
" Rigel, Sirius, Vega , Capella
u name him watever
he'd always be seen
glowing the sky forever
days when moon has ties
his presence will strobe ur eyes
guiding u throughout twilight
escorting till Sun shines bright "
" these buddies will help u cruise
on courses u have choosed
never let u down or be late
with an aim
for u to safely navigate"
" Smooth seas N favouring winds
they always wish for her
so that for her Onus she'd never fail
and all her life
She'd would Proudly sail Sail sail !!!

Christie MOSES is a great poetess.
Her pen MOVES with great finesse.
For her MORES in poetic verse,
Are like MOREL mushrooms immersed;
Sautéed MOTEL hot delicacies;
Ice cold HOTEL chilled daiquiris.
Relate a HOVEL to nice accommodations,
Is like a NOVEL with poor adaptations.
For my NAVEL hurts when I laugh,
By the GAVEL of laughter’s wrath.
I try to RAVEL all that I have learned,
But the RIVEL of my broken heart burns.
Orion’s RIGEL, Bellatrix, and Betelgeuse,
And PS’s NIGEL and Christie are my muse.
