At Midnight - a pixiku

Missing image

 

 

~~~ remember ~~~
even at midnight
the stars are shining brightly

 

 

Author notes

"And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them. And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one's bands were loosed.
~ Acts16:25-26
 

God works in and through the "suddenleys" and I believe we are going to see things "suddenly" lighten up.
 
 

A pixiku is a short form of poetry created by AllPoetry's Sea Angel. She defines it as -
"Pixiku is THREE line poetry
(Wild child of Haiku and Senryu).
PIXIKUS(ues) have no syllable count. Capital letters okay."

    Awesome!

    As usual, Sis, you are the master of poetry's shortest form. I love the significant note you added about Paul and Silas: God's miracles are awesome. And, as usual, this is a gold winner.

    Much love and hugs, SisBon

    this is exquisite. it is so simple, yet so meaningful and deep. i like the fact that you have included the extract in your author's notes, it adds additional meaning to the poem.
    thanks so much for sharing this, I really really enjoyed it

    really written beautifully and shortly with the story
    wish you the best with the contest and I believe the stars are always here to guide us when we are mostly lost and a way to listen closely to our prayers that we send above
