Blanket of Night…

΅〜 ೋღღೋ      〜΅ 

One Night...

〜 ೋღღೋ      〜΅ 

Lying under the blanket of night…

Stars sparkle their way through the black backdrop…

Creating illusions of images to please each soul…

~ ~

Waiting for a star to fall…

Waiting to wish my secret wish…

I stare intently…hoping…

They are oblivious of me and my desirous intention…

~ ~

Still I watch…

Still I wait…

~ ~

Longing for that one fleeting moment…

They continue their twinkling show…

~ ~

Still I wait…

Still I watch…

~ ~

Night…

Your playground…

My wishing place…

  3. The silence of night….sometime its darkness…when the hours are so dead I heard the cricket singing so beautifully… I felt Death…I felt the Life…I felt myself…I felt I am alive….I felt I exist…. in these very nights….You know Christina these feelings were my sole companions in my life of solitary confinement….!!

    You have hope in your words…and beauty…and Life
    Once again- your words are beautiful….!!

  4. How did I ever miss this one? Sorry, I wanted to read the full poem and found you had it twice under two different names. But there again, twice the pleasure, right?

    Night … your playground … my wishing place. I love that.
