You paint quite a serene picture of a world filled with levity and solace, I could envision the monolithic mountain peaks, and the celestial stars guiding your path to the only true place of solitude . . . Home. Well done.
very nice!! the falling star - boosted to heaven - to fly amongst the rest before crashing back down - I like the idea of release upon the crash almost - the ups and downs - a well played supernal trip! I liked!!
I felt this poem, excellent write. I love the stars and pine each summer when here in Alaska we loose the stars as we loose the night. Each fall as the stars begin to show once more I call friends in the lower 49 with jubilation, shouting the stars are coming back. They think I’m nuts but I do not care as I lie in the snow and stare in wonder wishing I could be up there. At times I wonder if my children wherever they are looking at the same star as I at the same time. In fact I wrote a poem I might post some day called Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star about that thought.
I loved your word picture painted so vividly about the mountains pointing the way to you desired destination, the stars. All three lines of the middle verse made me smile; I think they are the soul of the poem. And the first two lines of the last section I could relate to. Thank you for the poem, may I keep a copy for my personal reflection?
These are such tender words used to describe a very highly elevated goal. I certainly hope you reach your goal someday so you can dance among the stars
Wow. This is wonderful!
You're so creative !
I mean..no one can ever think of writing something like that!
"Nebulae envelope my soul
Galaxies so close tantalize me"
I loved those two lines the most!
and I loved the way you asked the earth to release you..
Great work!
