Midnight Sky ~*Marge Tindal*~ I have felt the warm wind blow across a midnight sky Moon in hidden stage of phase upon her light I cannot rely Indigo mood of deep, deep blue separates me now from you Lyrid Meteor's do fly across a midnight April sky Watching as their sparkles are spent stars begin a rapid descent Finding me in retrograde of all the starlight we have made Lighting up a midnight sky leaving a trail as they pass by Hoping that they glow anew caught up in a star so true *I just had to work the wonders of the Lyrid Meteor Shower into one.* ~Gorgeous painting by Duane Hilton~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Joyce~ Thank you so much ! The meteor shower last evening (2-3a.m.) was exquisite. Hope you get to catch a bit of it. INot2B~ LOL ! Could be ... but I'm fairly certain it's the Lyrid. This is the annual meteor shower time for such an awesome display. Catch one ! It's lovely to watch. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

~Marge,...you seem to always notice the wonders, and capture them in a way that allows us to notice too, (when you write of them like you do). Thank you much for that. *Peace you. |

I am never disappointed on opening one of our veteran poet's posts. I am so pleased to be able to return and share these experiences with all of you. Marge, you feel like an old friend and it is like coming home. This is a beautiful expression. |

Marge, the writing here is lovely... The picture suits the piece very well. The desert at night has always been something I have found to be breathtaking... May your dreams always dance to the rhythm of a lover's heartbeat... |
