Romance Fleeting (Poetry Thursday)




Romance
Like the nights shooting stars
Fleeting

In the day blossoms
captive in the glass
Flourishes and withers

Day to night
Night to day
Time barely acknowledges

Replenish the sky's stars
Throw them across the onyx
Where the pale moon observes

And notices...

Blossom under the glass
Adapt
But bring me the night

My lover

Hi- I'm here via Poet Thursday. I love the night and the moon. Enjoyed your poem very much, particularly the lines I cited above.

Ooh, I love the egntleness of your words.

This is 47

In my acquired wisdom I've accepted: 1. That it's OK to admit I like girly things 2. That it's OK I didn't post this ON...
