Black stars cluster in my hands
their diluted ink
probes the raw edges
of etymology's soil
waiting for potential green hope
I gather and toss them
planting dreams with typeset
in a fertile mind
Steadfast tiny roots spread
and reach for the brightest star
they cascade and climb
like black birds
reaching for the ripest berries
on paper the words wink
they encourage you
entwine in your ego
and grow into
translucent dreams
Towards the clouds they soar
spreading their midnight blue wings
and chase the proverbial symbol
the sighted bluebird
sacred dance
continues
to discover the heart's view
in
ongoing dream
*Black stars to me are dried seeds, sometimes when we plant them, we don't know what we will get. There are surprises along the way. I never thought I would be a poet ;D
We all have to keep reaching for our stars ***

That you plant them and never know what you're going to get. That must bring about such wonderful surprises :)
