A story laced in starlit thread

*

Star

Severed

Torn in two

The illuminations

Now housed in flesh

Wandering over endless ages

One aroused as a dark dragon’s whisper

The other an awakening woman with woven wings

And both endlessly seeking the other’s light

Both needing to find their way home

In timeless echoes their radiance

Now hunts halcyon days

Lilting movements

Lissome sighs

Converging

Fusing

Star

Whispered love that extends to the endless universe. If you could put colors on threads of energy, this would be it. Dark, light, soft, gentle, hard. It pulses. Lovely Craig. You are a favorite for sure.

Thank you dear Seriana. Aching today for the dream to awaken somehow. May your weekend be endlessly sweet.

Such a shame that not everyone in this world has such a beautiful story to tell.

Superb poem and you are a fortunate man.

Thank you, my friend. I can only be thankful the story has not yet ended, so there is a light on the horizon.

Oh Craig! This is a lovely piece! Makes me ache for someone!
Loved how beautifully you painted the phenomenon of twin souls, their never ending urge to find each other and thus their home.
Awesome! *_*

You are so alive in your words already. This one is nearest my life's story, and it's still unfolding.

[Ardra]

thank you :) ... your life's story seems so far too interesting with all the stars and dragons :P

[An owl on the moon]

Appreciate your kindness so deeply. And yes, there is much unseen in all our lives that is like a magic veiled. I can't wait to read more of your story. :)

Story that .. laced in starlit thread? .. looks certainly way adoring in words.
"Both needing to find their way home
In timeless echoes their radiance... "

.. makes me writing:

" .. two livings, one bud
two kaleidoscopic bodies, but one heart
illuminations burst up.. in the sky
perhaps, livings aroused outta starlit, lost/fallen on earth."

Extra-ordinary piece of art. Undoubtedly... impeccable.

[An owl on the moon]

Ah, my friend! Thank you for always showing such kindness to my thoughts; to my life story that is too often found poorly illuminated in my endless night. You are much appreciated.
