Stars Star hung lanterns glare silently Shine diamond accents long and strong They Braille my ship that sails along. Brand me gypsy wild and tipsy. They talk to me of weathers flare And wink at me in sly of flirt Like the curt of a women’s skirt That wiles me to a whimsy’s dare Their beautiful, a fairy land A hoary gaze of pure amaze A tapestry in wild ablaze A Jackson Pollok painted grand. They speak to me of lore and goal Make troubadour my heart in store They orbit me to evermore And palette hews into my soul. They give me cues of bright and sight They light a path into the night.

Star hung lanterns glare silently Shine diamond accents long and strong They Braille my ship that sails along. Brand me gypsy wild and tipsy. They talk to me of weathers flare And wink at me in sly of flirt Like the curt of a women’s skirt That wiles me to a whimsy’s dare ==================== A hoary gaze of pure amaze A tapestry in wild ablaze ===================== They orbit me to evermore And palette hews into my soul. They give me cues of bright and sight They light a path into the night. ================ oh my ... look whos dancing in the stars so fine .. and this poem equals their shine and your clever rhyme is divine .. and now I make this one mine. *winkiewinkie* and these two lines...... "They Braille my ship that sails along. Brand me gypsy wild and tipsy." they couldnt be any cooler if they drank raspberry Kool-aid .. that whole first verse is kissed with stardust!! OH and by the way.... NO one better be winkin at you but me .. not even Twinkle little star *L* Where the touch of the lover ends And the soul of the friend begins There's a need to be separate and a need to be one And a struggle neither wins |

What a ride through the tides of the heavens this one is. Exceptionally well done and I absolutely love the images in this one and the strength of the wind that fills it's sails. If you find yourself stranded in a storm ...then reach for my hand and we will play in the puddles together |

They talk to me of weathers flare And wink at me in sly of flirt Like the curt of a women’s skirt That wiles me to a whimsy’s dare made me smile...you write so nice I sometimes have to ~Sigh afterwards...when I reread and think about it's meaning to me ~Wynter "The worst prison would be a closed heart". ...Pope John Paul II |
