Star Poems | Examples of Star Poetry

As the stars twinkled gaily in the sky, they could only laugh - They watched the moon through all its phases, crescent, quarter, gibbous, full, and half. But as she cycled through her lunar changes, grieving for all love untrue, the stars sadly noticed that the moon was always blue. So, they charmed a gentle nightingale, "Please sing your pretty tune", and "the stars beckoned...

Above the gleaming constellations, soaring high Over waves of Seven Seas, where dreams lie She’s supernal, the Sapphire Star of El A fire pulsar shell, casting her spell Twiiiiinkle, in the darkened sky so bright She’s celestial, a blessing in the night Empyreal, with a glow that won’t depart She’s the sapphire gem that stirs the heart I’m pushing forward, lifting weight and...

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...

Star Studded Night Myriad stars like tiny jewels greet me as I set up my telescope a new moon was the current Lunar cycle, no light to interfere Ophiuchus the Serpentine constellation Slithers across the sky trailing Phosphorous dust in its wake I train my scope on the pinwheel shaped Andromeda constellation its spiral arms reaching far out to space the Helix Nebula comes into view...

Late at night or on the threshold of another dream, I power up my time machine and travel over the temple tops of an as yet unchartered heaven. The mind flips over as if some spectral hand was turning over a giant tortoise shell, the inner carapace is mapped, and I see that an adventurous wanderer has been here before me. Before the light illuminated the...

'Tis it better to know, or not to know? Now there's the rub! The dilemma in a Pandora paradox. Sure it's nice to get to know yourself, but not entirely, for the abyss within the cage will return the gaze. Better, perhaps to not know that the killer asteroid arrives tomorrow at half past ten. Nor what's in all the horror-scopes...

Mine soul's innermost essence is that of a fallen star. Mine origin is elsewhere out there in the cosmos very far. Mine universal love has always been more than on par....

Star boy They say heaven gained another angel when someone dies But when it comes to the death of black lives We say the universe gained another star Because to us It represents their light and love Shining down from above Each star a story of loss Each star a story of pain Each star a symbol of what being black costs Each star...

I never liked loud noise. As a child I would run inside terrified by the sound of an aeroplane flying overhead, cower under the wrap of my grandmother's thick coat on the rumbling roar of a passing truck. There was always menace in sounds that exceeded a threshold which for me was barely above that of the spoken voice. Even then, crowded spaces chorused in...

She said I can't trust you. You are to cleaver for me. so why do I stay? it sounds foreign to be close to you my dear. My morning star right there. Can you help? Can you heal? instead, you are poison for me. Now you have my soul, but you can't own me. so please move, step back, don't move. don't f$%ken touch...

Midnight Star Radiant night Darkness takes flight Candles with a low dim light Star’s glow bright Oceans crash on the rocks Moonlight on the docks Your reflections tread across the water Stand by you forever Take me under Black sky watches over A second chance Together at last You are Midnight Star It’s burns from...

Ssshhh! Ssshhh! Ssshhh! Says who? Says YOU? I knew. I doubt YOU. Hush! Hush! Hush! Now why? YOU cried? I knew. YOU lied. In the stillness Is the sound of silence. In the darkness YOU shine the brightest. Mind this: A star Is never born In the light. It's unnoticed until before twilight. But alas! When born It creates the day. It has found a way. So YOU... don't doubt, don't lie. It's ok to cry. Yield yourself high. Dream, Believe, Survive. ---Self-love is believing...
