The shadow sulked in a puddle of drool,
Dribbling, it bawled out its eyes on a stool,
Hot chocolate with tears,
Starbursts and gummy bears,
It’s hard to devour sweets when you’re a ghoul.

   On the back of her pony
     the universe lay
   comets and starbursts above
     periwinkles below spreading love
 
   O, princely pinto
     you're all I need
   Gallop the galaxy ~

Sky
encompassing protective 
dome

Light
shifting shades of daily
change

Dark
starbursts disembark with
moon

God
in grandeur reigns above
veil

We
remain fallen on bent
knee

Praise
kissing heaven in humble
poem

The promises of blue in the skies;
The burnt resin in your eyes;
Like emeralds shining;

So inviting;
In awe I will try;
To witness the creation vibes;

Caressing night;
Gauthered monolights;
Starbursts in the skies;
Mesmerized Breathe Taking Heaven views--=

Honest to goodness golden stars-
Embedded in my Baby's eyes;
Flecks of bronze on fields of green.
Lordy! how they mesmerize.
Mischief filled; slight hints of sorrow and;
Several shades of wisdom.
PromisesOf wonderful, wicked , sweet surprise.
She had me hooked
The first time I gazed upon-
Golden starbursts, In Baby's eyes....

Claytonia 

How God ignited the living continuum
No mind can fathom; neither therefrom,
How we sparked to flame.
 
Yet, some Sparks must beget Starbursts
Not Stars; Ephemerals, in their fleeting bursts, 
Are needed not less than Oaks. 

I kneel in prayer to lift up her small light
Against the dark, not to morn what might,
But illuminate the birthright of the briefest life.

I looked up to the moon this eve,
And in my heart I did receive;
A miracle, a sweet surprise,
Your love on moonbeams came alive.

Then as the stars danced to burst,
Sweet kisses fell onto the earth;
I gathered every one to save,
And placed them in my heart to stay.

Now when I look up to night skies,
The moon, the stars reflect your eyes;
They fill my heart with love so deep,
I burst with stardust ever sweet....

CHARM  OF  NATURE 


       With airbrush Sun rays colour sky to glow.
      Spangles of stars adorn charcoal night sky.
      Dusts of starbursts sprinkled in cosmic flow.
      Silhouettes on Milky Way freely fly.
      
       Air, Water, Land make splendid ambient.
       Rigid matter:  Flourished flora - creatures.
       Evolution : Life never salient.
       Nurture majestic Nature for future.

A random thought, strange lines are drawn
Starbursts exploding in the brain 
Parallel pathways amp the gain
From small to shrimp, from shrimp to prawns
Tangentially, another dawns 
Möbius-like, it loops again, 
    a random thought.

Eternal Now, it is explained,
sees ere I was till long past gone.
Now that’s a thought to linger on…
So did I now just entertain
    a random thought?

We're the class of sweet '16! We're not tender vittles... we're Skittles! We're shooting Starbursts, reaching for the Milky Way. We aren't always Nerds-- we can be Airheads, too! :) We're on top of the world, even if we get the occasional Snickers! We may have to Crunch down on time once in a while, but you don't have to be the Three Musketeers to have Mounds of fun and Almond Joy! We do get the Snickers sometimes, huh?

sitting and breathing,
 I am again
 in the wonder

there are fissures
 in my night sky
 I see a skerrick
 of heaven 

flaming stones
 happen through
 etching minutes
 on small hours 

starbursts course
 onto the Milky Way,
 snow in space and
 angel dust in my eye

pieces of humanity
 drift in the iris
 overawed,
 breathing stops 

in the incredible
 astonishment
 of existence
 and the favour
 of life 

I respire
 once more...

Cherished lovers ...
only in a magical mesmerizing moment
coloring passion remembered.
Passion ... someone's perfume perhaps or,
a desire for chocolate fudged to ebony.
Sweethearts embrace
held in pre-alzheimer snapses ... cuddling.
Such a pity, or perhaps ...
a blessing?  Why swoon or sway in the silence?
Just rest in a sweetness
of simmered leftovers
embracing this soul that knows
mountaintop peaks,
starbursts of ectasy
forever and always....

Rose petals blossoming out from the heart softly silk 
starbursts brightly sitting a regal flower kissed 

By loving sunshine sweet glowing beauty dances 
your delicate curling petals so beautiful 

Like a butterfly's wings fluttering eyelids mist
engaged upon a glance sweet fragrance whispered dew 

Embalmed by the perfume of such treasure found gift  
it is here that an arrow of gold strikes home dear
sweet velvet corolla crumples fragile breathless...

What a brutal sun that assaults the cliffs
   Where cacti and mescals dare to abide!
Here and there, dozens of petroglyphs
   Decorating the canyon may be espied.

In large nesting circles neatly drawn
   In evaporating wisps and bold squares
In a sun to give thanks for every dawn
   In little starbursts and stick figures

In a deer, in an eagle looking strong
   In a war scene kept by the ancients –
It remains unsaid – time is not long
   But to a murky end, everything drifts....
