CELESTIAL DANCE

cosmic party

Magic dust from the cosmos

sprinkles its dwellers

scatters glitter of all hues

to stain the moon blue

rising sun orange

blinking stars a pale yellow

planets a deep plum

together they rejoice

in a celestial dance

until they fade into

mere shadows of a black night

Author's Note

A beautifully penned atmospheric poem complemented by an excellent choice of graphic, Betty.
A delightful poem which shines as bright as the brightest stars as they celebrate in a celestial dance. Lovely work, Betty! Thank you for sharing...
Hoping surgery has gone very well. Take time out to rest and recover. Soon you will be back better than ever, Betty...

Dear Lisa you are my hero! Yes only one week plus out… pain controlled, PT difficult….so glad you’re back at the Cafe all mended up!
I look forward to reading your excellent poetry!
Warmly,
B.🌷🌷🌷

Do more PT than they say if you want to recover faster and in better shape. IAs you know I had a full knee replacement but the PT wasn't good and although I did tons on my own it appears that my knee is "frozen" and I will most likely need to go back in to have it minipulated..yikes..

Hello Bee

I hope the surgery went well? Much love!

I love your choice of words and picture. It was captivating so much I stare at it for a long time. Blue moon, orange sun, pale yellow stars!

As you step to this other side, the magic dust will not fade off. I see us dance together too even though we are complete strangers!

Thank you for this beautiful poem

[Betty Hermelee]

You’re very welcome🌷
Warmly, B
