Challenge
Take a few minutes to gaze at the night sky, clear or cloudy. Tell of what wanders through your head, across your skin, into your blood, from your breath.. Anything that speaks to you or for you.
Azure Vault of Life
Hearts perched on balance beams
of dripping tendrils of rain,
thundering in echoes of our past
as lightning rides on golden steeds.
Plume of my pen paints the skies
cerulean inspiration as moon
falls to his knees, yielding
to sphere of butterscotch sun.
Cracked wisps of madness explore
sky on wings letting go the fragile hush
of broken thoughts, reflecting mirrors
of life’s onslaughts in magical sky.
Windy fingertips breathe on my throat,
fire in sky strengthens heated desire
in billowed swirls of cushioned passion.
Skyward laughter of bubbles hangs
upside down from trapeze of stars.
Paper lanterns in sky of glassy light
peek through cloudy puffed windows -
azure vault of life to those who thirst.
