roll me down
against the stones
float my soul
to heaven
turn my eyes
to stary skies
most have never seen
I’ve heard a few
were painted
to ancient chapel walls
and wondered I
of fools
to never know
a blacker veil
wraps the edge
of city lights for reaching
diamond fields
unnoticed by the sun
fireflies
forgotten
by a wish that fell
one summer –
chasing dreams of magic
– lightning
to the ground

wow! so full of the light in the dark!
O, yes!!!! That’s just it. This was inspired by a trip to a local discount store where they had big tents with stars painted on the ceiling inside. While lovely, I was immediately a bit perplexed. 🙂 Have they never looked outside? Funny how much trouble we go to – trying to make better what was already perfect. Thank you, Soumyav. Hope your day is filled with unlimited inspiration and light that sits well in both daylight and darkness. ~ My love always, Bobbie
Reminds me of running through tall grass, chasing/catching “lightning bugs” and putting them in a mason jar. Wow! That was a lifetime ago. ~always~
Paul
I know exactly that……..and eagerly await the end of day so that I can watch the lightning bugs swimming through the lawn. I once read about the overall demise of the lightning bug, and have vowed to keep lights to a minimum so that they always have a place to go. ~ Thank you, Paul. ~ Much love, Bobbie
Such an atmospheric piece in the combination of picture and words.
I was carried away into my own memories 🙂
David
……….I suspect that’s a beautiful place to be carried to, David. I’m so glad I could provide the push to get you there. ~ Much love to you, Bobbie
Beautiful photo and just as beautiful poetry to accompany it…Wishing I too could be underneath the “diamond fields” with not a single worry on my mind.
You can, sweet Nessa……….. Always, they watch, daring us to give them new names. ~ Love to you, my precious one. ~ Bobbie
Your image that blends with your words is joyfully shared! I love always seeing their light divinely lighting up the evening dark, as they dance so majestically! I love sharing their embrace and gorgeous gift they bring! Very nicely done! Your life- light also shines bright in your words!!! Have a wonderful week ahead!
Thank you, dearest Wendell. Here’s hoping your week is filled with wonder and laughter, and that the heavens linger just a bit closer to your night. ~ Love ever, Bobbie
