the moon above
in heavens towers
sits and ponders
the nightly hours

reflecting upon
her past encounters
of starry nights
and meteor showers

her celestial self
so admired
radiating to earth
in full attire

capturing the hearts
of those earthly bound
forever loved
forever crowned

crowned the queen
of celestial nights
adorned by shimmering
starry lights

always in the heavens high
capturing my heart
with breathless sigh

Tracie Maree

It is the harmony of the universe

Yep, the moon has probably had more poems written about it than even love, but then the moon and love go quite hand in hand, do they not? I liked this one.

Wow, dear Tracie Maree, this is absolutely delightful. I am sure the Moonlady up there will show her appreciation by intensifying just a little her brightness, thus manifesting her gratitude.

JerryPat, Margherita, Nicole  & J thank you all for your wonderful replies, I appreciated it very much.

I think lil Marge girl has been playing with my heart, I've been missing her lately and thinking about all her wonderful moon filled musings, so I guess I should also say - Thanks Marge girl

Very nice, Tracie. Some people can use rhyme very effectively.and you are one of them..This poem does well by its topic, and reads like a song.

Dear Ice
you will never know how much your words have touched me. I love to write poetry but I have never thought of myself as a great poet but I know with confidence here at PIP no one judges you and if they do it's with enthusiastic helpfulness, thats partly why I love these pages blue ~hugs~
