The pregnant dawn spills its secret
Birthing sun in all the earnest
Tearful moon hugs the morning star
Gifting me wishes from afar
Let’s do a daybreak twist
Before the dawn begins its drift.
The sunbird fluttering its glossy wings
Round the edge of honey spring
Pricks its needly-beak into the bloom
Taking away all my gloom
Let’s do a sunbird twist
Before the honey seeker swiftly shifts
I am spreading my dream of green
To reach all heart to make them grin
Let all souls be made of light
Glow and twinkle in dark night
Let’s all do a starry twist
Before the dream vanishes into mist
I’m right there with you – doing a starry twist!
The pregnant dawn spills its secret
Birthing sun in all the earnest
Tearful moon hugs the morning star
Gifting me wishes from afar………. gorgeous lines
Such a beautiful lull to your rhyme here. Lovely.
A wonderful poem! With all the twisting, especially before it all vanishes into mist…i love this!
Let’s all do a starry twist
Before the dream vanishes into mist
Gorgeous ❤
I like that starry twist too… and that connection to the bloom that drives off the gloom… yes that’s a wonderful wish.
Beautiful imagery, Sumana. I like the repetition of the twist in different forms.This is a lovely response to the prompt.
This is beautiful and fun, with vivid imagery. WOnderful poem!
This is so gorgeous I got the chills reading it. I want to see it published! Such perfect imagery and flow.
The wish
is granted..
on the first
green day
of life on earth..
the wish expanded
now with creature comforts
spilling over land filled mines..
The wish taken for granted.. the gift
is being raped more as creature comforts
spill over land filled mines of more.. the wish
can be taken back..
and grey
rocks
of
living
death with
only electrons
swirling star dust gain..
Life is the wish i love to keep..
the wish of before.. the gift of alWays now..:)
you’ve expressed this so beautifully….
Thanks
Sumana..
Have missed
You.. Hope
You are doing
Well.. My FriEnd..:)
your words have a lighter touch than ever painting such delightful visuals – lifted all our hearts – those passing sunbird moments surely help us through the mist
