Overcoming the Storm
OVERCOMING THE STORM Into the storm I must venture, knowing that any attempt to flee only prolongs the ravages. Like any storm, it is relentless and destructive, just as a well-organized group of savages. It rips and tears at the flesh with sharp talons, trying to gouge deeper into the muscle. Perceived as high and lofty, it disregards...

Premium Member Through Cosmic Dust, a Guiding Star
In the nebula of your spirit's vast despair, When asteroid fields of sorrow wildly flare, Stand like a celestial beacon, constant and bright— Let your laughter be the starlight that conquers night. Though cosmic clouds may swirl, a dense eclipse, Your radiance can pierce the dark abyss's lips. For every void surrenders to a solar birth,...

Grabbing a Star

Premium Member Camping With The Friends
Once upon a time, it was a good day to be camping with the friends, We stroll into the campgrounds, put the logs into the firepit, Light the fire in the fire pit, get out our marshmallows, We sit on the makeshift benches, we have the ingredients, To make our Mountain Dew glow in the dark, We exchange ghost...

Paris, the tiny star
In a world too big for one so small, You walked with pride, stood ten feet tall. A heart of gold in a dainty frame, Paris, sweet pup, we still say your name. Your paws once tapped across the floor, A rhythm we won’t hear anymore. But echoes linger in every room, A light that cuts through even gloom. Wrapped in bows or...

Premium Member Sequential Star Light Dance
Sequential Star Light Dance Form: Ottava Rima The stars align in steps we cannot see, A waltz of thought, of time, of soul unrolled. Each shimmer sings a silent symphony— A coded tale in light and spiral told. They move as one in timeless unity, Though split by myths the ancients dared unfold. Each star a pulse, each orbit knows the trance— The sky...

When You Wish Upon a Star
There will be days, I know not when When thoughts of you will once again Revisit me and fill my mind With movie scenes of love, the kind That sits on laps, or better yet, Fades into a big sunset Another place, another time But I can always dream, can't I?...

Sparks of a dark night
The glow in my life can’t dim, It kindles as starlight, Revealed as sparks of a dark night, But consumed by great heights. Still shines when the twilight deepens, When the sun no more shows, And carpets of darkness are laid, The moonlight just then glows. At dawn, the new day births the sun, Its brightness in the sky~ A light that clears the darkest...

Heart Rhythms
Who am I? I'm that star in the sky that remains when all the other stars have run away I'm the last raindrop that dances on the rooftop at the end of a stormy day I'm that leaf that clings to the tree when the other leaves have accepted their fate I'm the last second of that minute of that hour that urges the...
