Stars twinkle a thousand magical words
Weaved, bred, tuned, in sync with the angel's song
Swim and fly alongside the rainbow birds
A white packet of smile, red box of hope
This is the land where you truly belong
Hey, sway to the beat, hold on to the rope
Romancing the mermaids on silent moon
Sleep well dear, nothing can ever go wrong
Dreams we will make true, together, and soon.
Note: This is my first attempt in writing a Nocturna. The Nocturna is basically a nine line poetry form based on the nocturne theme containing three, three line lessons recited during the night. The subject must be nocturnal and it consists of three couplets linked by the rhyme of the center line. There are ten syllables per line. The rhyming pattern is "a. b. a. c. b. c. d. b. d."
This Poem is shared with IGWRT - Sunday Mini Challenge - Nocturna.
oooh, very very lovely. very.
