Adorning a blue sky, wishing the moon wore black
By Leith Plunkett
Chinks in the trees armor
falling as a spectrum of sunrise
leaving holes where stars should shine
…..finding only ghosts

The title in it self poetic..Trees fall themselves,can snap in half and be penetrated by light..what a release ..I love the image.. little beams of light shooting through holes.. beautiful..wishful..dreamlike .. an aura of solitude.peace time and solemn silence ..but still manages to hold a smile.. In peep through the aperture in my hand and see through the opening.. I see beyond..

How deep yon azure dyes the sky, Where orbs of gold unnumbered lie, everything you write is so beautiful and calm

Heavy with thought and metaphor. Like a 3 course meal packed into 3 brilliant bites. Writes like these really keep me coming back to your page. Top shelf. +tpu+
