starry silence

Up high the stars shine bright
constellations hanging in the sky
like little lanterns
hung in the dark of space

Silent stars out in the sky
never argue never they cry
silent and forever shining
looking down us each night


Can we learn
from them
not to talk too loud

Can we learn
from them
seams of silence

On a blackened robe
she sparkles bright
like a woman in white

And on summer nights
with your lover fair
watching from above

And in love you go
ride on in the snow
climb to higher heights

Starlight lovers
blue moon kissing
sun light walking
nature is in tune

Wind gently caress
flowers fragrance sense
in the meadow soft and green
beneath the stars love is seen

serpico12, an interesting notion...does a star shine in silence, through the vacuum of space ... or love? hmmmm... ;-)

Hi, serpico12,
Though distance and silence find themselves sometimes in the presence of love, it may not always be said that they "make the heart grow fonder". Silent stars out in the sky...Can we learn from them..., the poet asks. To let our lights shine, perhaps.

hi goodguy, well it could be both..shine in silence in space, or in a person with beauty and a less wordy personality, which can be the same ...thanks..

Wow... so pretty! Love the theme... and so many descriptive phrases- "...like little lanterns hung in the dark of space", "on a blackened robe she sparkles...", "blue moon kissing, sun light walking", "wind gently caress"... I could go on, but better stop.
Every once in a "blue moon" I come across something so calming & enjoyable to read. Really nice! bouquet bouquet bouquet rose happy place
