Me Under Night Sky

ME UNDER NIGHT SKY

         Twilight welcoming dusk on charcoal mask
         Evening merging night
         Cerulean dream and ebony darkness to fight
         Periwinkle stars twinkling in delight.
         Sapphire polka dots pasted on void cosmos.
        Luminous fluorescent glow glitters glistens
         Murmur of zephyr: Sky listens.
         
        Crowd of cumulus cloud carrying misty dusty silhouette
       diluting bright light of ghostly gibbous maroon Moon
        soon to be hidden momentarily in platoon of floating clouds
        passing by leaving starry dome.          
 
       In pitchblende darkness sparkling stars gleam and glaze
       My drowsy mesmerized eyes to skip blink
       but to gaze spending sleepless night       
       sinking in reminiscences blending in sublime silence.
         
      Quiescent dreams of forgotten past to scream.
      Yearning for bygone days to rewind!
      Ardent ardor to roam on past where I had left you.
      Stardust sprinkling
      on my emotive urge to pulsate and resonate.
