Outer Worldly
Ways
Mystic whispers
free fall from the sky
perched upon the evening star
The light leaves with a sigh.
Venus, the star of love
emits her cosmic glow
calling all together
Beyond the ebb and flow.
The shadow’s gentle cover
They hold secrets, never told.
The world is peaceful at nighttime
the last ticket sold
Horizons blend with the darkness
The moon is yet to rise.
Faint stars begin to sparkle.
As blackness drapes the skies
The evening star is peeping
then walks in through my door
into my mind and my soul
And my very core.
The quiet night cools and captures
the daytime noise and trill
gently reorganising
Heat into the nighttime chill.
Metamorphic transformation
sparkles before my eyes
The evening star is calling
cloaked in her saintly guise.
Forget the faint tomorrow.
or burnt out yesterday
The evening star is lilting.
In outer worldly ways
