Poem -

discarded sparkles

the stars hang
like discarded sparkles
like a child's tantrum
has thrown them there

I want to thread them 
into something else
want the whole darn sky
to make some sense

again

It does’t make sense, Marion. Perhaps the stars can help. 
Beautifully expressed, my friend.

I love the idea of this! Using the stars strewn across the universe as a way of expressing the chaos. And threading them to try and make sense of (and calm) that chaos. Great work xx

Incredibly powerful, I'd take the stars from the sky to have certain things back. ❤️  A fantastic title 🌹

you wake up
take a breath
make a coffee
gaze at the sky

ponder the truth...
