Old Glory

Old Glory

A Poem by Cherrie Palmer
"

was out at 4 am yesterday and this image came into view while driving

"

Ebony canopy of night looms plush like a velvet sky

Lightly illuminated by light so dim it reaches her tower and then ends

See her ribbons of crimson wave as parallel white ones doth chase

Tucked away on corner high royal blue interrupts the sky

Brilliantly crested in stars pure white kissed by a breeze

They will dance all night.
