Special Feature Collaborative Poem--By Leokadia Durmaj, Australia and Robert Hewett, United States

Magic was the Night

By Leokadia Durmaj, Australia and Robert Hewett, United States

Looking up at the sky last night,
To see my cherished Star Angels there.
Bright stars shining ever so bright,
At first there were none I could see,
Hiding behind every dark cloud.
Clouds were creating a painting,
Evolving different shaped colours,
A scenic masterpiece to be.
Magical dreams of love began.


You lay there on that grassy knoll
Communing with your sky angels
Winking like iridescent raindrops
Upon a Lilly padded pond.
On my arm you were my angel.
The softness of your hair and skin,
Content within your world of love,
Your Star Angels; my Earth angel.
A perfect night for beautiful dreams.

  1. Lee and Bob, this poem stirs so many emotions within me and brings goose bumps to my arms and the back of my neck. It is masterful, in that you have managed to keep it brief and magical in the simple presentation, intent and emotional concept! Sometimes, a joint effort becomes like a dangling participle, but this joint venture is successful in balancing and maintaining! Very beautifully presented! Sheri

  5. Dear Bob and Leokadia, Your lovely poem reminds people that there are "stars" who make their lives brighter. What a wonderful thing it would be to have a "Star Angel." Your writing is superb and I love the way you compliment each other's styles. Well done! Love,
    Carolyn

    1. Thank you dear Carolyn for your beautiful words. I have been through so much in my lifetime. I wrote some of my story on Roberts Hub page. I find such peace looking at the stars at night, I call them my heavenly Angels. Sometimes they hide behind darkened clouds if there is a storm to be. I do love watching my star Angels. Sending blessings with love, Leokadia
