Among A Star

Put on mirrors edge of self,
a distant ride to trim the air,
to sharpen mind, give way to fresh
to reach a threshhold, advantage share.

Felt among a star in point
generating artistic flow.
An energy influenced by
the five performers, mass in tow.

Her twinkling points reached out to me,
through ranks of age, the hours past.
Had given freely to a rise
awakening new thoughts in cast.

She owes so much to her, this one
named Alice, as she frames in clear
the words of heart that pierce in warmth,
providing hope beyond a tear.

Back on road towards darkness driven,
cheating sadness once again,
among the stars that rise on high
she shapes my thoughts of now and then.

Thank You, *s

again nicely done... last two verses indeed sum up nicely the whole...but all that leads up to it sets the stage. much to ponder between the lines.... I enjoy

Karen..

Only from the heart,
can truth of Alice then be seen
Even when the mirror cracks,
there's so much more there "in-between"...  my thanks *s

Pegged all wrong? hmmm... an image comes to mind..of joinery done badly... pegs used to hold together not being adequate for their intended purpose. Perhaps you have pegged the point....

as for thinking... it hurts... and besides, I'm not at all smart enough to really think.

(Laughing)
Between thoughts
The feeling lies
Stretched in languorous
Disregard for logic
Soaking up rays of hope
Shivering with shadows of fear
It in pendulum swing
Seeks a moderate clime

Alice, do not go alone
into thoughts of Capt's stone
for think he does,
then pens it well
and turns a mind
with thoughts to tell...

just as you have.  Well done!

If pegged I do, as Alicethru
Never wrong am I in mind.
I've joined you once before, or twice
Delightfully might add, in find.

Your point I pegged? Now I must smile.
The thoughts that rise, not had in while
But smart you are and smart I know
Your penmanship of heart does show.

*s  Just thinking in-between your laughs and having a few of my own..

Oh I swing alot, to and fro
On and off the boards I go,
So moody me, of need sometimes
Begins again in passion clime.

~A~ to you ~C~ wondering what happened to our in between? *W

Alice, never goes alone
She's mirrored many on her own.
"C's" thoughts are sacred, I think much
until he presses buttons touch.
And then for all his  sweet, we see
stories told delightfully.
And Sunshine, thank you for this note.
Some days I laugh at what's been wrote. *s

an old one.... but the in betweens... well you decide.

Between the inhale
And exhale,
Of the short breath
Of time we were together,
At that moment when
I was filled with
The essence of you,
I did not know
Letting you go
Would be at once,
Both a relief and agony.

An old one:

Between  Layers

Almost touching you, I am
between the layers of clear.
The shine of once upon a time
is discarded among silver stars
floating in the shadow
on this moonlit night.

Summer's warmth, once holding
all promise of you, tempers the air
with your memory. Tears falling
like stardust, glisten my pillow
as I soak in the thoughts of you.

And between the night's layers,
in dream upon dream, I am shadowed
until morning comes.
Until I gaze into the mirror
to see only the clear once again.
