InfamyA Poem by AbraxasbirdEven Stars, the overseers of life, must leave us beA brisk distance quelled by a faint breeze whisking away A dandelion's wind-borne seeds, as my encroaching fingers finally clasp, Nearly grasp those elusive things, In a field, in a medley of beautiful things all around me I glimpsed the light hidden behind the gait of a heavy moon, Void was the night, though riddled with stars, wondrous from afar glitter glowed, tracing its dance with such might Graceful as a lark's swoon, The way all these things faded from view, Seemed reminiscent of you In and out of view, like a broken camera lens Like great portents of truth, Intrigued me.. Whom forever watched over the lands Without a slight, without a hand steadfast, and quiet Without demand Leaving their imprints on the blue sheet mirrors that blanketed the earth Inviting all who looked upon them into the ether Beyond the horizons of our world My dear sweet Aurora, in bloom in the garden of the night, Whose pedals fell upon the great many of us Shining brightly through the darkness Like a jewel in the sands,
Drowning in the dusts, the ashes of us Those pedals fell, with a persona all their own Landing gently on a great many a cheek With a kiss, a twist, and alas said goodbye © 2016 AbraxasbirdAuthor's Note
