“Terzanelle” A Million Stars

Dove

 

 

 

A million stars to gaze upon 

which one belongs to only you?

A million stars to gaze upon

 

I choose a different one anew

The pale moonlight glowing above

which one belongs to only you?

 

The one which defines our true love?

The pale moonlight glowing softly 

The pale moonlight glowing above

 

Are you gazing so Loftily

As I point fingers at each star

The pale moonlight glowing softly 

 

I wonder dear just where you are

Am I not your romantic soul?

As I point fingers at each star

 

So how can I ever feel so whole?

A million stars to gaze upon

Am I not Your romantic soul?

A Million stars to gaze upon

 

Part Two

 

 

The glistening tears in my eyes

The shimmer of my souls sad blues

The glistening tears in my eyes

 

The one that belongs just to you

Where our memories can combine 

The shimmers of my souls sad blues

 

If only my hopes could align

I could be sitting by your side

Where our memories can combine 

 

Oh! If the heavens could abide

make my dreams a reality 

I could be sitting by your side

 

Then true happiness I would see

A million stars up in the sky

Make my dreams a reality 

 

You wouldn’t want to see me cry

The glistening tears in my eyes

A million stars  up in the sky

The glistening tears in my eyes

    Thank you kindly for the read Orchidee, smilez! The original brings tears to my eyes!

    So many unanswered questions when we lose someone dear to us, so we look into the wonderous night sky, where more unanswered questions are found. But there is comfort for confronted with the vastness of the visible universe it's easy to feel the presence of your lost soul as if they were looking down upon your face.... and it's within our nature to demonstrate, one to one, feelings of love and sadness.
    It's all there in your post, a lot more poetically though.

    Thanks Dusk! We always use to say “ I love you to the moon and back” and thus the heavens is where I look first!

    Not a moon shall rise, that shall remind me of her bright eyes”

    Thanks for stopping by!

    I too look up at the stars and know that My Joyce is up there looking down on me. Looking at the stars is so comforting, after all the stars are holes in Heavens Floor.

    Awesome Angela & Brian! Glad you might try the Terzanelle, it’s why I posted the style, as you both have inspired me to try different formats ! I hope someone might break from their pattern of free verse!

    Best to the Trio!
