#NaPoWriMo #GloPoWriMo Day 22
I sieved the stars
Through my fingers
They fell on the ground
Now, sparkling dust!
The mist from my eyes
Mingled in the glass
The shimmer flowed
Into oceans and seas
Luminescence washed
Along a silver beach,
I picked up the shards
Of the broken stars.
One with the sand
By the shores, I stood
Crystal dreams in my hand
Clutched to my bosom.
Roaring skies demanded
The glitter be returned
For they carried visions,
Of a thousand Earths!
