Through The Skylight

Cassie58

i have loved the stars with fondness 

with passion and delight 

so when i lie here sleepless

i am thankful for their light 

that spangles in the heavens 

and has done all my life 

 

to those eyes that wink in darkness 

that enter in my room 

that chase away the demons 

the worries and the gloom 

i am thankful for your company 

and the shadows you consume 

 

through the skylight you are welcome 

at any time of year 

no need to seek an invite 

as i’m grateful you appear 

and the value that i place on you

is priceless that is clear

            A fine write Cassie.
            I'm not thankful for KP's botox - I have to pay for it! lol.

            • Cassie58

              Thank you Orchi. Pleased you enjoyed this poem. KP is trying to keep herself young and beautiful for you. Mind you I donโ€™t think Iโ€™d fancy Botox. Happy Tuesday.
