Shadows faint and dim
Light obscured and fading fast
Dimming into night
Stars slowly make themselves known
Competing with the moonlight…

Take on Me
Take my down to the Paradise City
–
Cities in dust
City of Gold
–
Golden years
Gold dust woman
–
Woman like me
Woman in chains.
–
Chains of love
Chain of fools
–
Fool on the hill
Fool in the rain
–
Rainbow connection
Rain drops keep falling on my head
–
Head like a hole
Head down
–
Down in a hole
Down under
–
Under the boardwalk
Under the cherry moon
–
Moonlight drive
Moon dance
–
Dance dance dance
Dance in my blood
–
Blood sweat and tears
Bloody well right
–
Right down the line
Right of way
–
Way to San Jose
Way you are
–
Are you gonna go my way
Are you gonna be my girl
–
Girl afraid
Girls just want to have fun
–
Fun fun fun
Fun to be had
–
Had to fall in love
Had to cry today
–
Today is greatest day I’ve ever known
Today’s gonna be a good day
–
Daydream in blue
Day light
–
Lights go down
Light my fire
–
Fire and Rain
Fire in the Sky
–
Sky full of stars
Sky high
–
High…
Stars…

If you stare long enough into the night
Stars, even distant ones, come into sight.
–
Bright ones that are larger or nearby
Always more visible in our nightly sky.
–
Faint ones, so far away it boggles the mind
That such distances can even be defined.
–
Light pollution of our cities today
Scares even the brightest stars away.
–
Last night I stared as hard as I could
Taking a few minutes to see what I should.
–
Lights at night are too bright for me
Obliterating what I truly want to see.
–
The cosmos is wondrous to us all
Promising beauty up each nightfall.
–
So when night falls, stare into space
Don’t be surprised if a star’s in place.

Infinite crystals.
Chaffs of light are cold fingers.
Never touching us…

Warm heat in the dark
You are near me like a lark
Your lips are the spark
Surely, mine find their mark
With some warm places, they’ll park.
–
There’s no need for fright
As tonight will be our night
With stars that shine bright…
-AAA 11/15/2024
Solitary stars
Shine so brightly, brilliantly
In the vast blackness
In blues, reds, yellows, and whites
Absent by day out at night…
-AAA 10/11/2024
We are all drifting
At one hundred thousand miles
An hour in space
Deep dark space with many stars
Far far too many to count.
–
But trust me they’re there
A billion pin pricks alight
Warming up the cold
expanse in all directions
Is there really life out there???
-AAA 10/07/2024
Moonlight wash o’er me
Dancing in your light I’m free
Brightness felt and seen
In the night, I feel serene
Underneath the stars so bright…

Stars are dimmed by light.
Mister Moon is out tonight.
A beautiful sight.
Everything tonight is right.
Definitely worth the flight…
