Celestial Jewel..................... (Birthday poem for CitrineSunrise)

Every regal leaf clinging still to winter’s bitter branch
inverted swiftly, revealing humbler color
the day your star descended clouded stair-steps
to bury its grace among us.

And in that hour I uncovered your astral spark
in versed and voiced expression,
no season’s ground could then withhold
my joy of treasured friendship.











In a list

    Awww how sweet. I am sure she enjoyed this. I love reading dedicatons. I really liked "And in that hour I uncovered your astral spark
    in versed and voiced expression,
    no season’s ground could then withhold
    my joy of treasured friendship."

    Great imagery. Excellent "winter's bitter branch." Lovely progression from "bury it's grace" to "no season's ground could then withold" "your astral spark." Gentle majesty in "your star descended." Beautiful tribute to a "joy of treasured friendship."
