Tonight She Holds The Moon Tonight She Holds The MoonTonight she holds the moon. Stars guide her as she becomes a blue shadow sifting in a moonlit ocean. Changing direction, as if on the sigh of wind, but in total harmony, she moves through the trees so as not to disturb creatures in the world around her entering an enchanted forest. She hovers across the meadow slipping as silk through streams with such gentle grace as to not leave a ripple. With one exhaled breath she can cleanse the very air I breathe. She is one with the elements. Her rapport so close, the communion so deep, that the embodiments of my very environment, and all the souls of nature are manifested in my heart. So silent and solitary, distant and receding, but today I felt her. I sensed her on my horizon, encountering her in my mind. I reach out to touch her, longing for that unattainable treasure as she sparks my imagination and stokes the fire within my creative spirit. She lives in me, is me. Opening my heart and soul, inspiring, and nurturing, awakening all my senses as my mind quivers in the readiness. My ever elusive muse, who weaves words of sorrow, promise, faith, hope, and love. and tonight she holds the moon.

Sharon..it always impresses me when one can find insipration from so many places... my muse wont work like that...to just look at a picture and flow with so much emotion.. this is lovely in all its expressions and images. well done poetess of many muses(you and margie) You're the hidden cost and the thing that's lost in everything I do. |

...in my honest, unbiased, completely unleashed opinion...she holds the moon everytime she rights, and paints the stars i Heaven with a radiant auora that tantlizes the face of the sleeping ocean with her beauty and splendor...(get the hint that I really...really...really LOVED this???) Awesome write, Sharon....your work leaves me speechless so often. Hugs and much love to you, ~*~dawnie~*~ |

How blessed you are with talent that touches me each time I read your poetry. Some have this gift for touching our souls and you have touched mine this morning. Sometimes I feel as if I've held the moon in my hands, but quickly my thoughts moved on.. warm smiles dear. Love, Katie "At this point in my life I'd like |
