As first breath of evening,
...softly whispers to the sky,
Blooms majestic splendor,
...of night's garden from on high,
O'erhead the stars of welkin's light,
...shine in majesty,
Cathedral of the gods above,
...form heaven's canopy,
In the silence of the night,
...grandeur's grace upon,
Creatures of the earth below,
...from dusk til morning's dawn,
A moonlit sky, a summer's eve,
...in night none be reviled,
As nature worships Luna's glow,
...and soothes her creatures wild,
Night's benediction on earth bestowed,
...winds sing in harmony,
Amid the garden of the night,
...in heaven's symphony.

Thank you Mike...you couldn't know how much
I needed the beauty of your poetry tonight...
somethings are just there when we need them
I guess. Once again Sir Poet you have taken
my breath away and swept me up in the golden
ink of your weave....thank you again~


You can swim in the waves of the weave...without sinking into the mind of the weaver~

Simply breathtaking! Your use of imagery is masterful. I'm putting this one in my library. One of the future issues of the newsletter will focus on nature themed poems and this would be perfect!

Each gentle phrase strung together to the next in a smooth flowing portrait of night.
Your writing is always so beautiful
