Celestial Traveler Haiku Poem by Lorraine Margueritte Gasrel Black

Dedicated to the very inspirational musical poet Ahmad Shaddiqi


Waves crashing on shore

clapping, embracing the setting

Sun's twilight last gleams


Golden fingers reach

across endless violet sky

Nature paints the clouds


Orange serenade

set the sundial's smiling face

emerald flash glows


The sun dips below

hugs twilight's red horizon

deep blue ocean sighs


Earth under cover

listens to nighttime music

currents of respite


The night shower leaves

refreshing rain or stardust

captured dreams released


Apollo returns

raptured Earth greets arrival

starlight blanket hides.
