Pauper of starstuff

Crush blue velvet painting twilight sky,
single speck set aside sickle moon.
Where one wish lives above, before all others.
Rolls of purple billows comb.


Settling slow these seas flow over,
dressing Nyx with blankets soft glitter.
Her essence swept, brushes all who fall under;
spellbound candle carriers praising light.


Cosmos crests spreading dense milky way
beads trickle pearls in finite hourglass.
Swift cried tears that all souls have wrought;
sling shot rocks, hurled asunder.


There on distant end fingers point
tickling nights fringe, pervasive palms fray;
As blankets fold back, glints shimmer fading away.
Tonight's cascading dreams take flight.
