The moon lingers as the earth
loses her attraction for the sun,
as it peeks over the horizon
with a pink particle glow.

While the moon covets
the body of the earth,
tides begin to rise
in the gloaming.
The fickled earth
waits patiently,
the moon rises higher
rocking the waves,
to the peak of their crest
in the menage a trois
upon the sea bed.

Gypsy ribbons..lavender gray,
and midnight blue
floats gracefully
across the twilight skies.


A poem is never finished, only abandoned.
- Paul Valery (1871-1945)

I like the concept of this one. I wouldn't have thought of it at all.
