      White Lanterns - Paula Raudsepp

      Glimmering Pathways

      Beneath the silver moonlight's gleam,

      Footprints dance in a playful dream.

      Each whispering breeze, a soft embrace,

      Guides the way through time and space.

      Through tangled woods, a secret trail,

      Where shadows linger and stories sail.

      Stars above like candles burn,

      Illuminating paths we yearn.

      With every step, the earth does sing,

      A harmony of life in spring.

      Lost in wonder, hearts ignite,

      As glimmering pathways weave through night.

      The fireflies flicker, a tender light,

      Turning dusk into sheer delight.

      In this embrace of soft twilight,

      We find our way, our spirits bright.

      Distant Gleams of Grace

      In twilight's hush, the stars appear,

      A symphony of light is near.

      Whispers soft as velvet air,

      Distant gleams of grace we share.

      Across the hills, the shadows play,

      While dreams unfold, pave the way.

      With open hearts, we seek the divine,

      In the moments where worlds align.

      The moon reflects on waters wide,

      Guiding lost souls to the tide.

      Each wave a tale wrapped in glow,

      Where distant gleams of grace bestow.

      From ashes rise the flames of yore,

      Transforming lost to something more.

      In every step, a cosmic trace,

      Leads us home with gentle grace.

      Stars of the Ground

      In fields of gold, the flowers bloom,

      Casting light that banishes gloom.

      Each petal soft, a gentle sound,

      Whispers softly, stars of the ground.

      The morning dew, a sparkling sight,

      Reflects the sun, igniting light.

      Nature's glow in every space,

      Tells us we're in a sacred place.

      As twilight falls, shadows dance,

      Inviting us to join the trance.

      In every blade, in every mound,

      There's magic spun, stars of the ground.

      Through tangled roots, stories grow,

      Carving paths that weaves life's flow.

      In the earth's embrace, we are found,

      Cradled softly, stars of the ground.

      A Canvas of Glows

      In the canvas of evening skies,

      Colors blend, and magic lies.

      With every stroke the world does paint,

      A beauty bright, no need for feint.

      Golden hues and deep indigo,

      Dancing lights in a rhythmic show.

      Whispers of time, stories unfold,

      In a canvas of glows, we behold.

      With every star, a dream takes flight,

      A shimmering guide through the night.

      Weaving tales of heart and soul,

      As the night embraces us whole.

      Beyond the dark, the dawn will break,

      Painting new paths for us to take.

      In every hue, we find our role,

      In a canvas of glows, we are whole.

      Softly Shining on the Path

      Moonlight drapes the quiet ground,

      Whispers of the night abound.

      Stars like gems in velvet sky,

      Guide the wanderers passing by.

      Gentle breezes softly sway,

      Branches dance without delay.

      Footsteps echo, calm and clear,

      Nature’s song for all to hear.

      In this haven, lost we find,

      Peaceful thoughts, a tranquil mind.

      Every shadow, every light,

      Awakens dreams of taking flight.

      Paths that twist and turn ahead,

      Stories woven, softly said.

      Hold your breath, embrace the night,

      Softly shining, pure delight.

      Murmurs of the Guiding Light

      In the stillness of the night,

      Flickers glow, a gentle sight.

      Echoes whisper through the dark,

      Carried forward, hope’s sweet spark.

      Guiding stars, their secrets share,

      Lighting highways everywhere.

      Follow paths of silver beams,

      Chasing shadows, living dreams.

      The soft hum of light entwined,

      Tales of journeys intertwined.

      Through the thick and tangled trees,

      Murmurs float upon the breeze.

      Wanderer, let your heart sway,

      With each step, find your way.

      In the glow, you are alive,

      In the light, you truly thrive.

      Serenity Flickering in the Breeze

      Whispers of the leaves above,

      In their rustle, hear sweet love.

      Breezes carry dreams so light,

      Serenity ignites the night.

      Gentle ripples kiss the stream,

      Merging with the moonlight's gleam.

      Echoing the silent calls,

      Nature cradles, never falls.

      Time slows down in twilight’s grace,

      Moments linger, softly trace.

      Beneath the stars, the heart can mend,

      Every breeze a soothing friend.

      In this stillness, peace we keep,

      Where
