As the Moon and Stars Fall

I have never been content in the shade of silence

collecting words from dreams that slip through my hands

as the moon and stars fall from the sky…

 

Yet it is this silence

that has me chasing sunbeams on rainy days

gathering thoughts as I would teardrops

no longer staining my cheek

but tucked safely in my pocket

to water the daisies

on a summer day

 

Yes, it is me

painting sentences with rainbows to decorate my eyes

with words of beauty, melodies of hope

to color my days with the whisper of the wind

and breathe through the night

as the moon and stars fall from the sky

 

No

I have never been content in the shade of silence

Msjewel,
Silence is a wonderful reality which can be a place of color and sound, that is of the soul. Our inner beings are such a busy place. To thinks and to create and share the tapestry which is just waiting to come forth. We can weave and share.
Blessings,
Kathy

The softness of your words is really incredibly beautiful, Julie. You paint lovely pastel paintings and tie them up with silver bows to bestow upon your readers. I thank you for these gifts. They are treasured.

My dear Julie, I believe I see those rose colored glasses firmly planted on your nose! What a wonderful attitude you have. Always look for those rainbows to paint your sentences....they will never steer you wrong. The imagery here is stunning and the sentiment is velvety soft. A feel good write. Lydi**

Well..those rose colored glasses steam up from time to time, but I'll blame it on the humidity and keep looking for rainbows~ Thank you Lydi for supporting my little scribbles. I appreciate you. Hugs, Julie
