The Stars are Hidden

On my night’s walk through the snow ‘neath clouded skies…

 

The Stars are hidden

Past veiled, lace-woven clouds

Misted, muted light

On gardens of white ice…

Yet I see them glowing

In my mind’s eye

As in dreams

That ride on wings of doves…

Now step-stepping onward

The only sound my footsteps

Still.. still.. still.. they sing…

And all nature sleeps

In silent slow slumbers

As I waltz drifting

On snowy stone…

I hold a tenderness inside

In mystery of my muse

Yet am fierce as fire

Unyielding my dreams

Clinging like sea to shore

Unrelenting my will…

The stars are hidden

Yet I see them still…

Awe yes you put so eloquently into words how just because it can't been seen doesn't mean it don't exist... like love and faith... dreams too can never been seen fully just in bits as you build toward making it come true.
Top notch writing again sir.

[Marie Anzalone]

"The dream is the small hidden door in the deepest and most intimate sanctum of the soul, which opens into that primeval cosmic night that was soul long before there was a conscious ego and will be soul far beyond what a conscious ego could ever reach."
-Carl Gustav Jung

To see what is hidden and still believe... is that not the very definition of faith, Craig?

[Jinx's Heart]

Beautifully written. Unfortunately I have a deep prejudice towards snow/wintery days. Your flowing words give me a picture perfect image. Well done. :)

As I read I felt as if I could hear your footsteps and see the laced woven clouds. A very beautiful piece.

A beautiful piece, just admiring the night sky...

[Jacey Lane-DeVille]

This is a stunning piece and to top it off I love the picture you put with the piece. Great job it portrays some loneliness and there is still beauty in the poem

[Gabriella]

This is amazingly eloquent! It really paints a picture for the reader and obviously has a very deep meaning. If I didn't know this was your work I would have thought it was by Poe.

[Tate Morgan]

Your writings are beauty personified in and out of the heart like a keyed doorway It is a masterpiece

a very haunting sort of write, this.. i love the juxtaposition of the fierceness of your belief with the softness of the imagery. plus it is such a self-affirming subject! very melancholic yet optimistic at the same time..

[MagiCrystal]

I can go on reading this poem for ever.. is has such a magic that is so beautiful and so enticing.. like a dream ... love it.. ..it fills me with.. dreams !

[The Tea Party Mouse.]

The images are so vivid in your writing. I like how you don't use any cliches and paint your own pictures.
