After the elect
Sailed through the milky river
Christ, the golden lamb
Shined through them in daylight blue
Like Omicron Velorum
Inspired by the Manichaean hymn "Hymn of the Bodies in Paradise"

Takes two to tango,
The star and the star's co-star;
Both just showing off:
The star tapping out the beat;
The co-star just following:-
2
The tango is on,
A political season's
M and T duo:
The MIOPOTUS leading,
And the POTUS following:-
Ordinary star
undergoes explosion
exhausting itn fuel.
Massive star meets implosion :
Its final destination.
Sudden collapsing !
A violent implosion
of large massive star,
squeezed by its own gravity
resulting the deep Blackhole.
So strong powerful
is Gravitational pull,
even light fails to
escape, but is just captured
inside and not to reflect.
Light has gone away:
. It's a magical wonder
or starry splendor !
Strong gravity of black hole
stole light that dared to enter.
Inspired by life tree
The Christmas tree, fir or pine
Garden of Eden
Decor, mix of new and old
Tradition is evergreen
A star at the top
Sing along to Jingle Bells
Glitter reflects light
Wish you a Merry Christmas
celebrate with love and joy
The star is rising
Celestial unique event
Miraculous light
Object or phenomenon -
astronomical angle
Poinsettia plant
Flower of the Holy Night
Star of Bethlehem
The leaves symbolize Christ's blood
- gorgeous in the windowsill
under canopy
of star-lit sky waiting for
beloved arrive
verse flowered from a bud bloomed
with unconditional love
Lost and so entranced.
Can't help but delve into stars.
Deeply enveloped.
She's fallen into her mind.
Lovestruck with all she finds.
Vast dome of night sky,
Spark slices through dark, fleeting—
Desert awash in light.
In silence, ancient secrets,
Shadows yield to the bright dance.
Silent One cool art
International poet
Lasting very tall
Elegant writes and poems
Northerly very bright star
Original kind
Nimble night so shining star
Enjoyable man
Acrostic Tanka & Senryu, in Andrea Dietrich terminology.
baby star heralds
hail dawning gild glimmering
aloof flora wakes
leaves billow parting top wisp
breath orangey-red's farewell
While drinking from snout,
I then knew without a doubt:
Eyes looking at me.
Suddenly feel uneasy
As our star-crossed gazes meet.
Bits of what we had
Became unstrung, life then spun
Out of my control.
Then saw goodness of your soul...
Sadly cannot find them all.
Scales always imbalanced
In heart once filled with malice...
Found profound solace
In learnt lessons from unknown
Sources of benevolence.

Only my sunshine rises
