we make new names for old Gods
The evening sky blushes through my window
between twilight and darkness we lie, looking out
waiting for the stars through the
leafy silhouettes of palm tress
I try to teach you all the names
of the creeping constellations
but you make up your own
giggling into the deepening sky
We are so small under the burning tendrils of light
and so blessed to see them, and name them at all

silent beauty (stars)
another
early morning
before
the sun
even dreams
of waking,
the cluster
of stars
visible
somewhere,
even though
hidden from
my view,
i know
they are
just
above me,
silent beauty
waiting.

alas!
The shores became lonely
the waves of the sea left them
the sun ran away by stealing
the colors of the sea
and gave the heavy scary night
coconut tree was chirping
with birds in sunlight
now surrounded by silence
this night imprisoned
the sounds of nature
the strong wind began
to blow in the space of
the soul of the sea and
gave a fierce music to the waves
the boats sat in night meditation
now...the wave arose in the heart
of twinkling stars
want to see the world of the sea
but alas!!!! they will...

Softly Stargazing
I have been loving this awakening moment in time
It has taken me so many years to be in heart, mind, body and giving thanks to my soul
To not allow the small occurrence in life to rock my morale
It is best to live in the moment
I listen daily to so many troubled intellects and they scream for peace, serenity of their heart
Endorphins and Adrenaline is the body’s best friend
Such a natural high when both are merged is to calm or a flight in your weakened defense
If everyone would only tap into the resources of its on psychic ...

Stargazers in Awe
There is a nostalgia in her eyes
Like a memory of million heartbeats echoing through time
A story untold through a near glassy glacial glance
Cold and warm all at once
Reaching out in the night
In the vast expanse there is a sigh
It’s as if there is a secret from the universe wanting to escape
You can almost imagine it as it treks along
Leaving a trail of soft and slow breaths
Leaving stargazers in awe
It becomes kind of like a recollection
Of lovers
Of friends
Maybe even strangers that crossed paths ...
Like a memory of million heartbeats echoing through time

Nova
The star, Riga, was a brilliant glowing orb filling the monitor at the moon base. Phillip had news that would soon cast darkness over the future. He approached Gudonov. “I’ve got the results of the solar probe, Helios. We have 100 years at the most. Then life-giving Riga will become like the Hindu god Shiva, death, the destroyer of worlds.”
“You mean nova?”
“It’s a certainty.”
The child sat before the luminous computer monitor. She punched - enter - file -...

The Star That Never Sleeps
Through the north window my chamber glows,
A star with uncanny light bestows.
Through long hellish hours of blackness and fear,
In the autumn of the year, when winds jeer,
From the north they curse and whine,
Through red-leaved trees, the swamp’s grim design,
Where mutterings in shadows creep,
Under the horned moon's baleful sweep.
I sit, by the casement's cold embrace,
And watch the star that holds its place.
Cassiopeia reels from her heights so bright,
Charles’ Wain lumbers through the night. ...

You must be in love...
Your eyes shimmer
like stars so dewy
Your face blossoms
with smile of a beauty
You must be in love…

Your face blossoms
with smile of a beauty
You must be in love…

Dark Stars
Never seeking attention
Dark Stars aren’t born that way
Existing only for inky perfection
Upon an infinite ebony skyway
Stitching into each other
Midnight’s ageless background
To hideaway from prying eyes
Without making a single sound
Uncomfortable with the shine
Elevated buried treasures
Never found or cracked open
Locked away with pleasure
Five dark pointed shoulders
Lifting bright stars high
Without malice or jealousy
Enhancing their light
Dark Stars aren’t born that way
Existing only for inky perfection
Upon an infinite ebony skyway

Midnight’s ageless background
To hideaway from prying eyes
Without making a single sound
Uncomfortable with the shine
Elevated buried treasures
Never found or cracked open
Locked away with pleasure
Five dark pointed shoulders
Lifting bright stars high
Without malice or jealousy
Enhancing their light

Dea
Dea
With that marble white skin
Plump lips
Almond eyes
Child of God
Playing with light
Come on dear
Let us catch fireflies
Let us dig the stars
With that marble white skin
Plump lips
Almond eyes
Child of God
Playing with light
Come on dear
Let us catch fireflies
Let us dig the stars

O Mighty Orion
A furry star so damp and bright
purred with grace and simmering light.
Brushed against his heavenly belt
sprinkling her pearls above his kilt.
O Mighty Orion, cease your play.
I did not come to reminisce or stay.
You came to steal my wavering heart,
rip it out of my chest, smash it apart.
O Mighty Hunter, she wickedly gasped.
a kiss on the lips was all I asked.
I want that kiss, and for you to stay,
to hold in my arms for a night or day.
That all depends on your hardened vigil,
between...
