Super Moon above the Colosseum


*


Right after the curve
she appeared in front of me
so suddenly.
Still low in the evening sky
she looked so huge and bright.

She showed off
in all of her radiance
and captured me.
So close she was,
seductive and mesmeric.

With glorious dignity
she quietly moves forever
along her elliptical orbit.

Full Flower Moon
remained in my eyes for hours
and followed me in my dreams.

She showered me
with sparks of gold
and lilac blossoms.

She bent over the silent pond
and sipped at her own reflection.

We touched upon the Spring meadow
lost in mutual fascination.

Best rendition of the moon showing her stuff that I have yet read, Margherita. Beautiful verses, words, phrases . . .

This is beautiful, classic and peaceful.
The mystic power of that majestic heavenly body well penned.

Thank you so much, dear Jerry, for your generous and loving comment. I am glad you enjoyed it.

Thank you, dear Kat, it's good to see you here.

Thank you so much, dear Eric, for your most kind comment. Yes, I too perceive the peacefulness, besides the irresistible magnetism.

Dear Karen, thank you very much for telling me you love it. I am so happy for you that you could see her last night ... here it rained and Luna was hidden, but my memory lingers ...

Dear Eric, thank you for peeking in, I so enjoy your presence here.

Love,
Margherita

Thank you, dear James, I guess the Super Moon over Hawaii must have been a top experience for all those who got the chance to gaze at it.  

Thank you so much, dear Ida, for your loving comment. I am pleased that you liked it.

Love,
Margherita
