Starlit Surrender
Starlit Surrender I stood before the mirror, shadows on my face, The world a stage, where I lost my place. In borrowed light, I wore a smile so thin, But behind the mask, I hid the storms within. The love we had was scripted, scene by scene, A fairy tale that wasn't what it seemed. With each embrace, I played my part...

Starlit reverie
A crystal skyline in the azure air, Where wishes dance and spirits dare. I stretch my hands toward stars that gleam, Yet find my hopes are but a dream. A radiant glow, a whispered sigh, That shimmering pie in the sky....

"I carry your heart with me (I carry it in my heart) I am never without it..."   E.E. Cummings Amber hues kissed twilight's platinum pigments that night, beckoning ivory pearls to weave patterns of astral flames.

Starlit Yearnings: A Daughter's Tale
In the quiet corners of her soul, she sighs, A girl in need of a mother's embrace, Longing for arms to comfort her as she sobs, Yearning for love that's magical, consoling and much. She gazes at the stars with aching eyes, Hoping for guidance from heaven above, Where stars whisper secrets, Through moonlit paths, Seeking wisdom in the darkest night. She craves...

Sun, so tired, into the Pacific, now doth take its rest. While the cold, homeless, head for hooded, warm tents. The melancholy, grateful poetess, joyful to see the moon, Observing its silvered reflection, in an indigo-magic lagoon. ...

Premium Member Starlit Symphony
I still remember how you were there in the dark, holding my bleeding heart. Whilst I wandered, sleepless under soundless spheres. Now I search for your starlit symphony that echoes, as idyllic octaves, from the last song you sang for our lost youth; demons we fought, when colorless dusks abandoned me, between tuneless sheets of emptiness, where citrine gold streaked wavelets of strawberry scented sunrise and amethyst sunset composed hibiscus hymns. But when ink within my soul hides...

Starlit Memories “…recently scenes of early life have stolen into my mind like breezes blown…” Samuel Coleridge Midnight reveries tickle my memories When I see bright asterisms ascend Through rivers of stars summers past I see Constellations retell their starry legends, Storied tales of fantasy in starlight, I search the sky for my celestial friends Lying in grassy fields on warm summer nights Spellbound...

The lyre and moonlight cascading. Tri-dancer transposes shadow. On tiptoes, gracefully gliding, The lyre and moonlight cascading. The artist’s pen twirling, shading His starlit dream…a stellar show. The lyre and moonlight cascading Tri-dancer transposes shadow. 1/29/2022...

One Starlit Night
It was a night of whispered words of love. His voice caressed me like a romantic song in the rich tones of an erotic melody that made me tremble at his gentle touch. I shall never forget that magical night... Our eyes bright with moonbeams and love. Hand in hand, we sat on my back porch. I inhaled his scent as our...

Gazing into the starlit sky for a peaceful realm, Delicate patterns a million light years away Where no one knows who or what is at the helm, Gazing into the starlit sky for a peaceful realm. The twinkling of innumerable stars can overwhelm, Amid the unfathomable reaches of the Milky Way Gazing into the starlit sky for a peaceful realm, Delicate patterns...
