Elliptical Illusion ~*Marge Tindal*~ ~Way out across this velveteen night sky shy light moon goes passing by Backstaged her glowing looks so full yet a crescent appears in magnetic pull Oh, my eyes do deceive, even a seasoned moonie like me ~ What a night of confusion Houdini-God performed an elliptical illusion Spotlight shines on the edge of this night but somehow it just doesn't look right Sheer curtain of half-pulled phase still she bows so gracefully in crescent haze~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Margie girl darling sister of my soul this is utterly divine, as always your writing far surpasses the mere brilliant and is superb. You know I love this, that is a given of course. The lines are truly exquisite and YOU know I utterly utterly love it. Why is it do you suppose that your writing always passes over the mere ordinary and soars into wonderment? Well, whatever the reason I utterly utterly love it. And whenever the moon casts her silver glow there is your pen dipping into the silver and writing your name in it’s moonbeams. This is utterly utterly wonderful and I love it love it love it   Love and warm stuff As always Mushy  To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79 |

She's back! She's back!!! Oh, yippee yippee yee-haw! *S* I was wondering what the deal was... and about to offer suggestions. *G* (If you couldn't find a spare electrical outlet, run an extension cord from the neighbors? Or if it was lack of telephone line holding up your reconnect, get cable? *G*) Bill knows he's a lucky man... but he does know he has to share, doesn't he? *G* YEAH!!!! She's baaaaaaaaaccccccccccckkkkk! This is beautiful, Marge... your moon poems are always a treat. *S* |

I'll ditto Martie. *S* I was grumbling and grouching cause I was hoofing it out to the dumpster when I really wanted to be keeping my pillow company... then I looked up. *S* And your poem had jumped right up into the sky and found a star friend. *S* |

She?! What do you mean SHE? Do I look like I wear skirts? Have you ever heard of the "woman" in the moon? NO, of course not. If you don't correct your errant ways I will withhold my moonbeam's from your romantic evenings. By the way, "she" lives on the dark side Let thy moon arise. William Blake |

A wonderful work, as usual. However, you did seem to upset the man-in-the-moon Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |
