I was playing around with the color combos and came up with another color combination that I thought makes a nice variation from the first “Reach For The Stars.”
The sky on a dark december morning in 2006
NIGHT REFLECTION Stars sparkle down across the sleeping city / Freeway headlights a pale pallid echo / Here and gone here …
NIGHT REFLECTION Stars sparkle down across the sleeping city / Freeway headlights a pale pallid echo / Here and gone here and gone / The dark sky absorbs and reflects all the waves of nightness. My dimming light is made more bearable by thoughts of you / That bring luminous memories from distant worlds / Beyond our reach for now for now / I hope to find and explore them again someday together With you in the life we’ve only dreamed about / Where time and light become one / Without the plastic on/off switch / Of deadlines and fading responsibilities Where the horizon has no boundaries or limits / And sound and light have become one / Together, repeating and echoing / Hand in hand, forever.
I see a star, / On a velvet night…
From my collection: / Wilderland ~ Alaska North Star Winter Scenics A brilliant golden winter sunset in late October 2007 reflects a warm amber glow on the snowmobile tracks, ice and snow covered frozen surface of Chena Lakes, Alaska North Star “One day the sun admitted, / I am just a shadow. / I wish I could show you / The Infinite Incandescence (Tej) That has cast my brilliant image! I wish I could show you, / When you are lonely or in darkness, / The astonishing Light Of your own Being!” Quote from ‘I Heard God Laughing’ ~ Renderings of Hafiz ~ Translation by Daniel Ladinsky Chena River Lakes Recreation Area Fairbanks North Star Borough ~ Also called Chena Lakes.
