Click hereA marvelous mysterious streaking night skies
children scream and point
lovers close their eyes and wish
Elders see their life while others see their destiny
cosmic dust bunnies amongst glittering black
Living the shooting star
Floating and timeless traveling through space
close to heaven and far from hell
a soul peacefully floating on the milky way
Power held in love barely touched
skies filled with reminders of rapture
twinkling stars capturing universal truth
Burning bright touching lives from afar
a thousand wishes dance along the night winds
kissed by the stars joy
All too soon the light fades
a solid mass lost amongst the Nova wreakage
destined for unknown fate
Existing and eternal one moment believed
touched by atmospheric tongues
bursting into the cleansing flames
Time grabs the tail riding the comets blaze
shooting and startling across the pure night sky
Wish my children as the burden of life fades
To know once love is worth the pain
Tomorrow will come regardless the struggle
Face the night skies filled with the rapture
Breathless the streak of fire and light
Forever remember this shooting star night
Burnt out in seconds a piece of my soul.

sackalmost 19 years agoAs I didn't vote on his poetry offering today (but have voted on others if they effect me emotionally) and I've been "back" for well over a month. How sad that someone uses the Public Forums to take a potshot at another poet. Reflects more on Tale than me!
My Erotic Talealmost 19 years agoI should have known sack was back when I saw my votes this morning. Very very nice piece Du, one of my favorites from you. An "E" material. Excellent.
sackalmost 19 years agoOne of your best....particularly like the following:
Elders see their life while others see their destiny
cosmic dust bunnies amongst glittering black
Living the shooting star
Fabulous stuff!
