Lost in brilliance
Sleepless and alive
Mesmerized by
Twinkling lights
Dancing diamonds
Finely polished by
The nights velvety black sky
Safe beneath their glow
I linger
Trusting their familiar patterns
To embrace me
A welcome home
They continue to delight
Despite years travelled
I’m a child once again
As their stedfast scenes entertain
Whether shooting across the heavens
In a silvery flash
Or quietly at rest
They fall before my awaiting eyes
As I gleefully attempt a capture
So elusive are they
As they disappear from sight
Their promise to return
Brings me back
To this unwavering expanse
A constant companion
A comforting contrast
To chaos and turmoil
Littering the ground
This utter serenity above
A most powerful retreat
A gentle friend
To calm and shelter me
At days end
Though times change
And life fades
Diamonds are forever
A heavenly refrain
