Moments!

#2 of Randy Baker's tranquil June prompt

By Novel AllenPublished 2 years ago 1 min read
NightCafe Studios

There are those moments within time

when my soul yearns for that which I know not

when life is like a passing ship

lost within the great expanse

of the wild uncharted void

~

Steadfastly hold, thou my compass

hold fast thine destinations

guide my wave tossed ship's course

as it sails in the tumultuous quietude of isolation

beneath the tranquil, glorious stars

~

In whimsical moments

clouds come dancing by

waving yesterday a fond adieu

welcoming today in sunlight's warm embrace

~

Captured in wisps of fanciful thoughts

solace brings peaceful cascading waters

bathing the Horizons in splendid hues

a graceful heralding of unknown worlds to conquer

~

Glorious is thy beauty

when splendidly captured

in the breathtaking beauty

and majestic noise of dead silence!

AI

13 Preferred words: Passing, expanse, uncharted, yesterday, isolation, dead, compass, clouds, hue, steadfast, solace, water, dancing.
