Reaching for a Star

She once reached for a shimmering star
stretching her heartstrings from afar
traveling the sky-way from here to there
inhaling the promises of the night air

celestial navigator transcending time
penning coordinates in lyrical rhyme
searching for a pilot on silver wings
out in the heavens a songbird sings

on dragon breath adventures flew
seeking paradise somewhere new
holding on to treasured dreams

would dawn bring sunlight's gleam

slumbering under a sturgeon moon

time drifts away in coastal sand dunes

desires of the heart awaken at night

kissing the last remnants of daylight

across the heavens a shooting flame

passion soars, love remains untamed

riding the crest of breaking waves

weary souls rest, tired and brave...

Voice of My Soul

Under a starry sky, I dream

following  the voice of my soul

awakening to the mysteries

of night...

I become an archeologist

using a chisel,  breaking

barriers that hold my

tongue captive

I am  a time traveler

whispering in your

ear my hearts desires

Of Truth and Fiction

I dance between the pages

of truth and fiction

I sing between the verses

of lyrical poetry

I write between the covers

of fantasy and desire

I dally between the chapters

of knights and dragons

I read between the lines

of mystical adventures

I dream between the settings

of imaginary and real places

I love between fantasy and reality

engaging with amazing characters

I find myself between truth and fiction

giving you silken words from my heart
