IN THE CANYONS OF THE NIGHT

Folder: 
JOURNAL # 38

a shattered prism
scattered across Heaven's floor
shards of otherworldly attributes
faintly glisten to be noticed
the naked eye captures
the magnificent glint in every
space swept fleck
too distant though is the debris
that their array of color
was long since filtered out
light years likely before the
left over sparkling white made it
to the prehistoric lens of the
simple human eye
and yet
even with so little left to be
admired
still so much beauty lay
'In The Canyons Of The Night'
like some pale mosaic
of celestial litter..............

Author's Notes/Comments: 

inspired by the man who has captured my enchantment and made it his own and his great love for the stars which over takes even mine sometimes ( meaning my own great love for the stars)
