Venus

I'm glad that you're always there for me,
whenever i look to the sky.






Whether it's late at night
or wee hours in the morning,
as i'm walking down
along those dimly-lit pathways
My anticipated miracle.

As i look up each time
magically, you're up there
As always.
You never fail.

The most brilliant of all "stars"
Your bright torching yellow glow
beckoned invitation
to fixated flaming passion
Yet still
so alluringly gentle altogether
Smiling softly down at meh.
You give me hope,
You light up my dark.

You're my constant.
You've been the most devoted
amidst all the upheavals
and uncertainties
in my life.

You've given me strength to continue,
you've made me smile,
you've warmed my heart.

Ahh... my Venus
Be there for me always.

Be my eternity.

Early Morning Venus...


When dawn new pales
with horizon gold
scarved in dappled grey,
and calmly brilliant Venus
timeless holds on high
in stillness everlasting,
I feel a faint quickening,
as of lost youth revived
and beauty-inspired joy
unscarred by weariness,
the losing battle with life.

Larger than the brightest star,
distant, shining, icy,
yet warming to my eye's embrace;
intensely white, resplendent,
solitary, dominant,
the brightening morning
is your domain.
You reign supreme.
There is none other like you
'til the great golden god
mounts his eastern throne
and you are vanquished,
from our sight overthrown,
by one far greater than you.

Still, you remain
my silent, silver queen
of early morn.
