The Star Painters’ Ladder -- ( a Tallen  & Sky_dancer collaboration )

   
Primary colors three  
red, blue, Green  
pailed in comparison  
You and reaching for me  
brushes at the ready!  
We begin a steady climb.  
   
Our ascension, a destination  
through my atmospheric red  
blending our violet hues  
in waves of your crashing blues  
canvas primed,  
majestic wash t'ward our skies.
 
   
Outstretched arms straining  
for the next rung of our path  
dodging white holes raining  
debris --  universally cast.  
   
A summit not yet revealed  
with upward strokes each colour new  
celestial flowers in heaven's field  
the promised radiance in view.  
 
Stopping to smell the roses  
we prepare to paint the stars  
& of comet’s tails and novas  
and galaxies afar.  
I paint the cold space canvas full  
each stroke of  brushes  attuned;  
chiaroscuro & sfumato primary tools  
creation of ancient pagan runes  
   
   
As light cast eminates boundless  
form's appearance softly reveals  
the sigils of spell's incantation  
and starry strokes  
glisten ancient creation.
 
   
Preparing the ritual to ferry  
a journey’s ride and repast  
we honor Gods and Goddesses  
through supplication and fast.  
We gather the Blessed tools  
create the altar new;  
with crystals, stones & jewels.  
Our paths await  
the universes’ cues. . .  
   
The sacred vehicle of You and me  
intertwined in destiny  
a painting never finished  
merely a chosen point at which  
to abandon.  
And our destination-less climb  
is the canvas, colour and painting  
of spirits caught in hallowed time.
