Stars in the night
diamonds
around the neck
of the Milky Way.

Stars in the night
diamonds
for luring
men.

Stars in the night
diamonds
for dresses
of black vastness.


Stars in the night
diamonds
dropped
from my pocket.

Yann, you do come up with some lovely, memorable lines in your poems!

"diamonds
around the neck
of the Milky Way."

~ Next time I look up at the Milky Way, I'll be thinking of your poem!

Love & Star Light,
Linda

I love the stars and this was beautiful.  Thanks for sharing :-)

The only time we waste is the time we spend thinking we are alone.
