A story laced in starlit thread

*

Star

Severed

Torn in two

The illuminations

Now housed in flesh

Wandering over endless ages

One aroused as a dark dragon’s whisper

The other an awakening woman with woven wings

And both endlessly seeking the other’s light

Both needing to find their way home

In timeless echoes their radiance

Now hunts halcyon days

Lilting movements

Lissome sighs

Converging

Fusing

Star

dear Owl... it is always comforting to
see the "evening star"... Venus I believe.
There are so many stars and your poem
encompasses the possibilities of the radiance of
timeless echoes... "Lissome sighs... Converging.
truly, Pat

I was clicking down your pages of postings, trying to find one I hadn't yet reviewed . . . noticed along the way, how your poetry & the artwork you select, all of it has a very strong point of view, when taken together. This is something most poets never attain. I very much enjoy all of your artful thoughts stated with graceful imagery & imagination. The title of this one really caught my attention & sent my mind wandering, thinking about finding my own starlit threads! *smile* Fondly, Margie

Ah, so thankful for you seeing the connections, for reading the images between the lines. I am first and foremost a visual being, love nature and art, every color these embrace. Now just hoping that as evening comes tonight, before this glorious new week begins, that you'll find some starlit threads waiting to weave a world for you, Margie. :)

I love how creative you got with making the whole poem look like words encased in a star. I can only imagine the amount of effort you had to put into making this poem, coming up with the shape and yet housing such a delicately intimate yet powerful poem was truly amazing... I LOVE IT!!!

[An owl on the moon]

Thank you, Sangeetha! The words fell into the form as they flowed out, for the most part. Once I recognized it, I only had to help it along. :)

True true, most times genius pieces are a result of flow of the mind 😄
