Waning Love and the Cloak of Midnight's Blanket

I wrote this a while back and it's good to visit times when love died and lessons gave way to an educated heart...especially when the heart becomes stronger and love is still right there on the horizon.

Poem Artwork

The illumination of the southern star is east of Georgia tonight.

It pales the great state's vast heavens and illuminates this path to sadness.

The spark of shine from the east is no longer radiant as holes from a fleeing comet burst the fused trapped light into tiny novas of pain.

The sparks of fire rained down upon the wet marshes then continued to glow as embers in a dying heart.

The silent moans sent vibrations to the smallest creatures and in their spirit a sadness crept and all mourned the dying sparks of this infant love.

The cloak of midnight's blanket caressed the fragile light and the kiss of darkness smothered the flames and with some iota of justice ...love reposed.

"The sparks of fire rained down upon the wet marshes then continued to glow as embers in a dying heart" This is my heart now. Such perception. Pierre.

I identify so well with the blend here, Susan...how nature can imprint the emotions and simulate the power and fragility of love in sky cycles. Night's fireworks in exalting blastfalling hopelessly in shards and fragments back to earth.
The moon's on the end of full, isn't it?...emotions on the surface.
Love,
Taylor

this is fantastic and I love every line of it. So magical and yet still just a touch of sadness in the way the love finals flounders out with just a bare flicker.

Hugs
