Full moon shone from the night.Traces of shadows outlined bright. The landscape lit up as if daylight.Playing hide and seek such a delight. Darker reaches playing tricks on my eyes.Is something hidden, lurking in disguise? Searching silhouettes for life's existence.Maybe creatures hunting for subsistence. Nothing to be seen in this dimness.Am I alone in this partial darkness? Does nothing else in the night subsist?Only th...
Looking at the morning moon,pale now in the southern sky,moving slowly like me,while the sun is rising in the east,bringing dawn and another day,and even though the trees are stilland it’s quiet here,no birds at the feeder,the squirrels have not begun their chatter,my dog is still asleep,yet everything is moving, spinning, ticking, breathingand somewhere far awaytears are in the corner of sad eyes,or a smile has come to s...
Sometimes you light my way with your bright face, your lovely face, so round, so luminous floating through the darkness at a pace so slow it’s almost still and devious, pulling tides higher on the shore, blinding me from stars with your strange, indifferent glow. Sometimes, you hide in shadows finding ways to give so little light as you grow darker with each passing night, a sliver, a slight smile on you lips, a teasing g...
Once I thought that the Sun never again would shine upon my skin. Those warm rays that made me thrive with steady beat. For my days were dark, so cold and sad. The Moon would cradle my tears as they endlessly flowed. Tears that I kept hidden, only the beautiful Moon knew of my pain. This morning I see the Sun, I feel it's warmth within my heart. Today is mine to share with you, this day is ours. The Moon is joyous, as we...
The gates of life have opened up for me Slowly I step and ponder what comes If I were to leave, what lies beyond? Many times I would wait until sunset Just to see if they were left ajar Sitting very still I dare not move Most certain I would not get far This place has come to agree with me As I seem part of the majestic scenery Within these walls I cry and laugh Trying to bring past memories back The Sun still shines yet...
As the Moon begins to fade, I look beyond All of the memories that dwell in my mind I cannot say that many of these are fond Those I choose this day to leave behind Before there was darkness and despair This day is very different calm and light The Moon is slowly fading yet I compare The Sun seeks to shine ever so bright There is a sound reason for my tendencies Of only nature, the stars and love I speak These elements ar...
A Children's Moon displayed today, upon a canvas bright and blue, not a cloud in the sky to see, the only thing on exhibit, you Mr. Moon. Showing yourself in the brightness of day, for children who would usually be asleep in their beds, when you appear at night. Eyes wide, mouth round, look of surprise upon your oval face. Not a frown, as I would expect from you, being up so early. You appear almost translucent to me, bot...
When troubles plagueAnd you know not the way,To the Man in the MoonYou have to say.All on your mind,Leave nothing out,Just talk and talk,Till he’s nothing to doubt.Give all the piecesAnd lay down to sleep,While ponders the manAnd thinks so deep,That in the morningThe answers he’ll knowAnd if you listenYour path he’ll show.~ Inspired by the 1991 film of the same name.
I was walking alone Lady Moon high above Guiding my steps leading the way The Sky was dark Black as tar The only light was her shimmering Love She looked at me with a watchful eye As I sat on the Sand, hands covering my face Distraught and Restless, as I cried My Heart was empty, sad and worn My days were null and full of pain My Soul was Shattered and Torn My nights were Sleepless and in Vain My eyes quickly changed from...
Where are you?Moon's fullStars outYou're nowhereIn sight.Candles are litfor our dinnerGlasses filledWith champagneSoft music inThe backgroundYou're nowhereIn sight.I lay aloneThinking about you.An empty bed sideWith your scent Permeating the sheets.I need you.I want you.You're nowhereIn sight.
