Cubit’s Arrow
When the stars twinkle so bright, what wishes on them alight?
When Cubit’s arrow struck true, who saw the marks on the shaft?
Rare sands, so fine, run faster, silver words fall at clay feet.
The Blue Moon through chill air arcs as it slips into retreat.
Though replete with Lunar glow, are some Lovers just ill met?
The Hunter changes region while cold dew coats each regret.

Rajdeep, thanks for the appreciation.
This is an entry in a challenge for an Arabic style (Qafiya only) Ghazal in English.
I was fairly happy with it and am glad for the favourable responses to it,
Gion

Whenever possible I buy blank greeting cards and write my own messages. It always feels good to create from my heart. I believe poetry is all around, in every thing and action and spontaneous speech. Renewed by the human spirit's appreciation of beauty and goodness. There is no unchanging standard that can reside in perfection in books rarely read.
I am a husband and father of 2. Starting to write down before forgetting.
Know what I like when I've read it, trying to get to grips with photography.
Gentleman of leisure, not uneducated, all spelling and grammar errors I lay upon my eyesight.
nice one Gion
very well written
