"Her Constellations"

Her constellations are bite-sized galaxies of feeling,
each cluster a starfield guiding through
hidden chambers of a trembling heart.

“Lantern in the fog” becomes Polaris—
steady beacon anchoring a mind adrift
amid the static of modern distractions.

Swipe, scroll, tap— a trio of stanzas aligned
like Orion’s Belt, mapping the relentless chase
of dawnless days and restless nights.

High peaks glint in verse, oceans breathe in meter—
the Pleiades’ shimmer beckoning me
toward wonder’s uncharted edge.

Ellipses wink like shooting stars,
each pause a promise of light
yet to be revealed.

Together, they form a skyborn invitation:
a living map of longing and awakening
where every reader discovers their own
horizons waiting to be explored.
