I’ll admit I went off on a total fkn tangent... I think it was the white dress.

Milky way
Elevation that to celestial heights
To where no rocket or vapor trail
Spoils of failed attempts that orbit blight
Space debris left over nuts and bolts all weightless sail
Our vain attempt to seek solace
Step beyond the false wing and feathers
Tread the atmosphere that blackest place
To hear the orchestra the strings pitched grace
Ice a nymph to raise her bow
Suns ions pepper and colours show
All to move like kalidescope mirrors that endowed
To walk with Gods on that high cloud
To where no rocket or vapor trail
Spoils of failed attempts that orbit blight
Space debris left over nuts and bolts all weightless sail
Our vain attempt to seek solace
Step beyond the false wing and feathers
Tread the atmosphere that blackest place
To hear the orchestra the strings pitched grace
Ice a nymph to raise her bow
Suns ions pepper and colours show
All to move like kalidescope mirrors that endowed
To walk with Gods on that high cloud

The Pied Piper of Light
Come with me,
to the end—
in spirals
in swirls
in light—
it goes ‘round, eddies;
and ‘round, we go
to where time runs out.
I shall serenade thee,
with sweetness, on
bows and strings—
a swan song
and epitaph
as we say goodbye
and sink between veils
of living water.
I take over
where the band leaves off, and
one White Star Liner slips
to titanic depths—
Arise!
And Rejoice!
Come out of the waters
of baptism
and follow me home
on auroras, ocean-hued, for
souls never perish, just
become—
light
and song.

I created my universe
harmonious melody
bleeding love and colors
bittersweet shades
and pools of night
I touched my universe
feet bare on the looking glass
an endless ocean of stars
of futures and pasts
whorls of art
painted by the strings
caressed by my song
and the song was pure
the song was true
I molded my world
a universe so good
so will you come
and join me too?
share in this love
walk on its stars
taste the magenta
lingering in the air
and hear my song
tended in sweet care
in this world
you will always belong

A Lunar Serenade
On our cosmic voyage
Exploring the Sea of Tranquility
We star travelers three
Heard music exotic and serene
But this sweet concerto
Played in beautiful harmony
Was an inexplicable melody
Originating somewhere in infinity
Whether alien or angel,
O musician, whom ever you might be
Thank for being welcomed and received
With a hymn so heavenly

Fiddlin’ Perspectives
It’s all about perspective
when You see the product of Love:
hues dancing and attuned
influenced by the Faerie Fiddling
atop of the earth
Aurora Australis isn’t below
just because
She is the Dawn of the South!
Flip Gaia’s realm 180 degrees over
& now does not Aurora Borealis,
the Dawn of the North, playing her
song producing love and light,
still remain on top of the world!
The peek frequency of love
the peek vibration of light
about every eleven years
the Fiddlers play a rainbow of
colors dancing in the moonlight
producing a beautiful sight
for all to marvel and bask
with delight.
They play to help heal the earth
so Gaia’s keep might
live and survive.
