Devotional devotees dazzlingly delight
At an amazing aurora’s star of abiding light;
You’re yawl-like year-round of Yahweh’s areole-sight,
Starlight of sunshine, starlight in splendid night,
Twinkling tirelessly ‘til the thickest tip of twilight;
Ardent acclamations in our hearts arise…alight,
Reuniting us in rejoicing with reverence in thy rite!

She sat on a small window bench
Her head resting on her hand
Looking out into the dark glooming
As the silvery moon rose to shine
On the rippling waves of the bay.
It seems she was winkling at her.
Telling her not to give up hope,
On the horizon sailed a large boat.
A red light flashing every now and then.
Was it in distress? Was there something wrong?
She phoned for help the harbour manager of the bay.
Soon small ships raced to the yacht,
The captain cursed himself for forgetting the flares.
Still with help of all, the yacht was towed to harbour
And all was safe and sound.
The feverous glow of growing sunrise,
Reminded the captain to thank his rescuer.
And what a sight it was to see the beauty
Spying on her luxury yacht.
She was invited to dinner on the boat
And love was in the air. And why not?
She was a Venus descended from up above.

Faeries were popping in the sink
In the form of bubbles that did not see me
I saw the twinkling and winkling
It looked like it was bubbling
Stopped suddenly when they saw my interest
Come on! I urged them.
I am imaginative, I can take it.
Not one more glitzy movement.
I sensed a gleam from the window.
No reason to see it, an ethereal feeling
Elementals were here for sure
Keeping things entertaining and fun
My muse kicked her feet in the air
She is the first one to sense them
Waking me at three a.m. to join her fun
I pick up a pen and being to write.
Trixie snatched away my pen
and tossed it into the trash.
She likes lavender ink.
An opinionated muse
Who is jealous of faeries.

Form: Vertical Monocrostic
Night moon shines bright in the cloudy sky,
Azure carpet with stars glowing high,
Twinkling lights sing a sweet lullaby,
Unending darkness that makes me sigh;
Rollicking and frolicking magpie,
Enters and says good night by and by.
