Loving in the dark
Puddling moonlight for their bed
Shadows soft and warm

Sounds of their breathing
Harmonize with their bodies
Leave them as vapor

Where two had arrived
Only one leaves attended
One waits for the sun

Sun exposes faults
Which hide within moon puddles
Giving them a name

Moons can be lonely
Depending where you come from
Find your own puddle

...and glow some within it

...just bein' Bluesy

This poem turned out to be a little tricky for me...

Where two had arrived
Only one leaves attended
One waits for the sun

If two arrive and one waits for the sun and the other one leaves who is attending?

I really like the moon puddles and all that and glow some with in it but the rest is giving me fits. It is Friday and I'm not hitting on all cylinders anyway. So I'm sure it is all very simple. PLZ set me straight. ~L

Perhaps not a "who", Lori Rhoden... Don't let it lead you to a corner. I like the way you think...and think more. Conclusions can be hard around the edges, and not always fun.
