Poem: Where the starlight begins

Photo by Catrin Welz-Stein (http://catrinwelzstein.blogspot.de/)



Where the starlight begins, we see a hazy vision of tomorrow.
In the silent corner of the night we dream of impossible dreams.
In search for a way to ignite them, growing stilts we borrow.
Where the starlight begins - we see a hazy vision of tomorrow!
Undying hunger to return to the sun, left us in sorrow.
Strange comfort we take in electric moon beams.
Where the starlight begins, we see a hazy vision of tomorrow.
In the silent corner of the night - we dream of impossible dreams!

 Poem prompted by dVersePoets. I also wanted to try Triolet poetry form.

  4. Yes, I like the "strange comfort" line a lot too, and the mix of natural and human-made comforts.

  5. dreaming impossible dreams...i much like that...our fantasy and vision without boundaries... ah...some magic in the starlight and what comes with it.. and i like as well the borrowing of the stilts...the looking for possibilities to reach what was unreachable before...very cool...and warm welcome at dVerse... smiles

  6. I like to visualize that there is a place in everyone's life for those 'impossible dreams." I like what you wrote to the picture.
