Keeping a Night Sky Alive

Contributed by justjonesy on Monday, 10th January 2005 @ 07:38:52 PM in AEST
Topic: LovePoetry



Shooting stars keep a night sky alive
and calm dark waters are rippled by a feeding fish
With our back against the dewy grass, you whisper,
"they dont last.....so make a wish."

They burn so bright, then drop out of sight
I would spend a lifetime to take it all in
Maybe our fires done burning
and like those stars.....weve fallen

Our past sings through swaying trees
and words break silence like a distant wind chime
Maybe this is only the beginning
and we will burn brighter in time

So tonight I share my wish
to the girl with the broken smile
ill throw it all in the water
and ask her to stay a while

I've read a few of your poems, and I can tell that you put your heart into your writing. You also have insight in your reflections which gives your poetry more of a mature feeling than most of the stuff on this web site.

So tonight I share my wish
to the girl with the broken smile
ill throw it all in the water
and ask her to stay a while

I liked the way you said this. There is depth in its feeling.

Be True,
zenmind
