evening versify silence
at the edge of consciousness
mystical stars of ebony creation celebrate the heavens 
while a drowsy moon whispers a dulcet song to comfort nights sleep.

panorama of fireflies caress the horizon

i saw a little girl with a daisy in her hand
and a tear in her eye and i wondered why
she cried. then her frown turned into laughter;
i did not understand.

off with the dream she soared
carefree elegance into twilight scene 
empyreal smile mesmerize all who witness
her radiance emit like the goddess of dawn

the child spoke soft as angels
of love. of faith. of wisdom. and
the need to be free.
as she touched the earth all beauty flourish
from here to eternity and her essence painted a rainbow in the sky. 
the tear then formed a chrysalis; encompassing passion of a child's heartfelt
truth
array of tranquility bestowed her poetic constellation and 
a gentle wind awakened nights celestial sleep. 
from the catalyst emerged a beautiful woman shining
in the light of dreams

i saw a little girl with a daisy in her hand
and a tear in her eye; i wondered why she
cried. then her frown turned into laughter
