Poetry by: Victoria L. McColley

Decrescent Shadows

Under the lunation of your veiled brilliance
Announcing pearlescent visions to muse
Kissed by the stars and the intruding comets
Your orbital spheres loom and evocatively emit
Casting upon the totems of earthen darkness
Your light illumes the quietus slumber of shadows
Revealing reclusive pathways to begotten serenity
As you preciously become a jewel of the night
Vibrantly kissing the absolution of phasing seasons
Until the decrescent shadows reach morning light
