  1. The hope feels conflicted. I love the way this flows, sounds…the imagery affects like watching children catch butterflies. It’s a happy thing, but sad for the ones that don’t make it out of the net the same.

    1. Yes, thank you for the thoughtful comment my friend! It is indeed meant to depict a conflict as twinkling black remains something unseen and hope for some is in such abundance that its presence is concealed. I loved your interpretation – ‘It’s a happy thing, but sad for the ones that don’t make it out of the net the same.’
      Thank you for understanding! Have a nice week ahead. 🙂

  7. Oh..Oh.. regretting my late entry on this poetic island. Wondering, how I missed this Twinkling. Okay………wondering apart. Here goes my latest comment-
    HEAD : Cutting a star was an awesome feat (How did u do?). This is just incredible.
    TRUNK: The white to replace the void and contrariwise. Though this is a substance of sadness but the void was beautiful in your words.
    FEET: “Twinkling black in a jar of time”…………. beautifully captured thought. In love with this particular line so kissing the feet.

    Overall, a lucent star. Love it.

    P.S. Why a cobbled sky? My heart is ready to shelter such a lovely star.
    Stay shining darling! 🙂
