you've gone away,
to a kingdom unseen,
blessed be.

i hope you feel at peace,
and even though i miss you,
you will feel better where you are now.

you are not exposed to the cruel world,
you will be exposed to doves and angels.

"Time cast a spell on you
But you won't forget me
I know I could have loved you
But you would not let me
Time cast a spell on you
But you won't forget me
Well I know I could have loved you
But you would not let me"

doll face
lavender thighs
rose gold heartbeat
alternate endings tracing cheekbones
like broken glass
your sawdust jawline

summertime soiree
knee-buckling faith
a mouthful of metaphors
forevers
daisy chained couplets
some purple skylines

feathers
cotton
hushed loving between
celestial bodies
grapefruit and coconut sugar
closing time

deities not quite worshiped

purple jolly rancher
dress and tie

hips swaying from side to side
windchimes

love or truth
now or never

full of life
merry-go-round mindset
happy dizzy
revolve around the sun

Now that it's a new year, is it time for a change?
Cause now you're here with a haircut and trees of green on a chain, around your neck..
And you're trying out rings of Saturn for the sole of your nose,
And you've been working out for hours just to slip into new old clothes, oh what next..

Cause I know that people change and people grow over time
But you're the moon, with your phases and at the end of each night
I hope you embrace every part of your being,
Cause you're a beautiful mess, a heartbreak delight

Oh so can you tell me, would you hide your deepest scars from your soulmate?
The one you've given all your heart and your soul to, on your worst days
Even when he's so far away
And tell me, would you keep your darkest thoughts from your best friends?
Cause if you're lost I'd wanna find you again,

And darling I'm a fallen star in the palm of your hand,
Though there's still a million in the sky, they're your fans..
I better show you that I mean something, and my goal this year is just one thing and that's,
to keep you for as long as I can

And I don't care if that's selfish,
God knows i can't help it
I love you, and God too, has felt it
Cause I prayed through all the times you nearly didn't make it,
Even with no faith you made me believe there's a place for guardian angels to do their saving

And I need you as much as I hope you need me too,
Like I said I can't help but go all crazy over you
Cause it's a crazy kinda poetic loving truth
And aren't you glad i wrote this poem,
Just to tell you again!

That I don't care if this is all selfish
I love you and God too has felt it
And if you ever wonder where I am
Just look between the lines in the palm of your hand,
I'm a fallen star and you're the moon,

you're where I wanna land,
I love you.

The colors
Brightening, lightening, darkening, dimming
Grey to green to fragile white skies
I'm crying because I love you
I'm crying because you're someone I believe in

The walks
The talks
The distance we traveled
Not only in miles, but in heartbeats
We just walked around the rings of Saturn and back

I wanted to maybe take your hand and hold it in mine
Grey skies, with the droplets splattering your neighborhood
I wanted to wrap my arms around your waist
Maybe rest my head on your shoulder to show you exactly what you mean to me

The crunch and scuffs
the background music to our walk
And I'm crying because I love you
Crying because I know that this girl who I think the world of
Would never want to be mine
And we'll never walk around the rings of Saturn again
I'll never feel like you took me to another planet.
A planet of hope and happiness and strength and support

Darkening, dimming
The lights are fading
And I'm wanting to take your hand
And take another walk tat leads us to Jupiter

I can smile because I love you

Exquisite stranger

Your system is breathing
With a high speed winds
Mysterious nine rings
Swirling continuously
Around your face
With dust, rocks and ice "
Particles of isolation,
Heavy dreams, strong
Heartbeat. Pieces of blue,
White, yellow and violet
Sixty two moons orbit you,
So to feel save, harmonious
Love, for sixty two years in space.
We love you, Saturn,
Your atmosphere of ammonium
Crystals in pale yellow hue…
Attracts our mind, what is behind you?
Deep metallic heart of hydrogen,
Of helium and gases " beats inside
Your giant body…
Where your existence started,
While our dust will vanish millions
Years…ahead.

Saturn Venus & Mars

If you live in the Northern Hemishpere of this universe,
go out any night this week an hour or so after sunset,
and look at the western sky to catch a planetary triple play
starring Venus, Saturn and Mars. The first thing skywatchers
will see — weather permitting — is the planet Venus,
slightly north of west, in the constellation Gemini.
Look for Gemini's twin first magnitude stars,
Pollux and Castor, just above Venus. As the sky gets darker,
the planet Mars can be spotted to Venus' left as it appears
in the constellation Leo very close to the bright,
first magnitude star Regulus. Further still to the left,
will be Saturn shining in the western part of the constellation Virgo.
The sky map below shows how to spot all three planets.
Venus, Mars and Saturn are all currently appearing,
slightly north of the ecliptic, the path the sun appears to follow
over the year, shown in green in the sky map. This occurance inspired
the poem that follows.


Good morning my love, hope that you slept well,
while you were away my dear, all the night sky fell,
the only stars that remain, are the stars in my eyes,
when I gaze upon your face, the tears my heart cries,
for I can only dream a dream, of you in my world,
and wish that I could kiss, those sweet lips so curled,
I also wish that you, would think of me this way,
holding you in my arms, is my wish each and every day ....
