Poem- Cold night stars May 6, 2013

‘Neath Cold night stars

that come undone

they glow afar

new life begun.

Breathe, you’re alive!

Ignore the scars

Rain washes sighs

making time ours

new life begun

‘neath cold night stars.

 

I saw your face June 3, 2010

I heard a laugh today,
And on the rolling strains
I saw your face again.

In unexpected ways
It seems the memory’s stained,
and still some trace remains.

Your laughter long away
Came creeping past the pain;
I see your face again.

6/10

A day to play with 3s: three triplet stanzas in iambic trimeter.  A laugh, a flash, and a poem appears.
