Nocturna, by Samara Golabuk

Nocturna, by Samara Golabuk (USA). 2009.

​nocturna

the stars
do keep their secrets,
loving planets draped with rim of breath,
huddling down toward stratosphere--
nurturing

we are
looking back through blue,
that dimming lens,
to see the filamentous cosmos arching

ever sparks are we
within,

alive
