Rainbow Nebulae
by
Danaë Xanthe Vlasse:
 
 
Eternally adrift
In starlit penumbrae
Filling heaven;
Rainbow-hued nebulae
Nest patiently;
Birthing and nurturing,
Cradling history
And future life!
 
 
Rainbow, Rainbow!
Like a hummingbird in the ghetto,
Searching for sustenance in the cosmos’ shadow.
Time is their nectar and fire feeds their bright halo.
Lengthy wings of shimmering pearly Lucite,
Regal robes and amber crown of flaming light;
May be shattered and shed in an angry night.
Rainbow searching for sustenance,
Like a hummingbird in shadows of the cosmos.
Time is their nectar and fire feeds their bright halo.
 

Elemental essence;
Darkness enveloping
Star fireworks!
At distant light’s calling
Through lens reveal…
A refuge of ages
Of cosmic afterlife!
