144. To Know Lost Light

You live nestled in the cloudscape of dreams
Graced with your linings of liquid silver.
Fluid light springs forth in billowing streams;
Air catches light to know your sheer glimmer.
But how you set this earthly world aglow,
Bathing the commonplace in creation
In blankets of light that embrace us so;
Night after night, we know inspiration.

In your luminosity, you share light.
We know radiance in darkness with you.
You watch us shine with all of your might.
Our skin glows in your periwinkle blue.
Daylight comes far too quick and all too soon.
Beauty lives lost to the oft-parting moon.
