Poems About Stars Seeking Honest Critique
#stars
Polaris Ursa Major
We might short ourselves
if we don’t dream big
after all
some things are more achievable than others
because if we don’t really challenge ourselves
what happens when what we once thought was impossible
becomes too easy?
it’s up to us
to set those standards a little higher
so that every achievable milestone
will motivate us
and propels us forward
why stop at the moon
when our eyes are fixed on the stars

where do stars go to sleep?
i oft wonder
where do stars slumber?
as soon as dawn
smudges the darkness,
the shimmering dots fade away
...fade into the sun's
golden beams-
a water of dreams it is,
where the twinkling gems
submerge
deep within its sea;
mirroring the heavens,
this blue ocean
is where these glowworms
turn into starfish.
they rest at the bottom
of the surreal world
until the skies
turn back
to bewitching black,
waking up the
mystical sparkles
from their sweet sleep;
flowering into a starry...

Sirius Canis Major
Across the sea of time
Stars burn bright
Telling the stories of ancient beings
Beginnings
They tell tales in a language unknown
They were here before us
They will be here after us
And their light will keep moving on
Long after we are gone
In the vastness of space
They have been beacons of light
Guiding us through seas
Through mountains and deserts
Leading us in dark times

Sky Tonight
It’s an app on my phone
And every chance I get to use it
I watch the stars with speechless wonder
I point it at the night sky
The names of distant stars light up
The drawings come to life
And old mythological characters take shape
I think about our own lives
What impression we will leave for others
And if after we’re gone
Will they tell our stories?
Just like those
We still see out there in the universe

~the (un)imagining
amidst the sumptuous
feeding in impending glooms..
trying hard.. to swim against
these blackly enshrouding
opacity clouds.. choking
in noxiousnes..
how foolishly dare-devilish
to act against a devil itself ..
(or is it the destined divinity..)
this mere pure a defying act
of i m a g i n i n g .. yes
(literally reads as if an ‘unageing’)
a rebellion.. a religion

Atlas A Taurus
When she almost died, I told the Taurus stars
“Give her back to me and take me instead”
So when she came to life I protected my wife
Knowing I had lot of work to compose ahead
I made a pact with the universe, my life for her–
So that I may go into the infinite cosmos first
Thus I immersed myself in prose and verse
To write my best even when I’m at my worst
Ever since I’ve spit mad bars looking up at the stars
Declaring my love even if I’m sounding silly or dumb
Whether she laughs or cries I love the look in her eyes
But I...

Achernar Eridanus
Further and farther into the universe
Out into the far and wide unknown
My love feels like it travels across time
Mesmerized and awed but never alone
Into the vast distance where stars burn
Past beginnings and origins of creation
My love explores the stellar heavens
With exhilarating extraordinary elation
Faraway into the utmost reaches of the cosmos
Where even the strongest light hasn’t beamed
My love goes on a journey faster and more distant
To where imagination has not even yet dreamed
Maybe it’s because I love...

Back to Gemini
(Castor and Pollux 2)
Back to Gemini that space between him and I
When we see eye to eye in that dual personality
One’s a fly by and the other can be the fall guy
Like a balance act between absurdity and rationality
And perhaps this is why Gemini is my favorite constellation
As if the astrological sign is in line with that characterization
There are two temperaments but usually logic is at the helm
While the mad enthusiastic maniac wants to overwhelm
Castor and Pollux watch from their positions in the sky
It’s like their...

The stars stretch out before me as I sped through space
feeling the G forces on my mortal body
I astral traveled through the cosmos
at lightning speed so fast I couldn't see anything
until my soul slowed down for a moment, floating
And the stars and colors bloom in front of my eyes
amazed by the sight, I awed and oohed
Then was pulled again deeper into the celestial
where again the galaxies appeared before me
I had a sense of other beings and I could hear them talking
the being with me was communicating in their language ...

Proxima Centauri Centaurus
We stars have lived for only billions of years
Yet our time with the universe is finite
Thus you must be fruitful and productive
If you hear this message and see our light
Seek enlightenment and use it wisely
For everything that has a beginning will end
Find the truth and share it gladly
And then you will be able to transcend

Whirling Dervishes
like whirling dervishes are stars;
pirouetting on their axis-
spin, spin, spinning
in a meditative momentum.
zooming in...zooming out-
breathing luminous plasma.
fusing...exploding-
a continuum of endless beginning.
swirling...spiraling
ever in the celestial realm
to the divine music
of the colossal cosmos.
emerged from the void
these self-sustaining entities
held by their own gravity,
constructing...destructing
themselves
as they dance
in trance ...

Greetings Deepunderground,
We have formulated a response to your artistic language of poetry
At first, we could not decode the language in its emotional state
It came to us singing through the universes
And our top scientists and seers
have been trying to understand this deep expression
of what you Earthlings call love
It is with high expectations that we reach out to you now
We believe we are related to you, Earthlings
sharing the same space DNA down to the molecular level
Your poetic language is enlightening to us
