Moonlight

Moonlight lights a wistful way
Stirring shadows into play
Cleaving light impairing sight
Making magic cold moon light.

And fantasy rides the blur
Stirs the mind into a whirr
Slurs the process into mist
Capturing a form of gist

Phantoms ride the edge of tense
Form into a form of sense
Shape the whimsy of your thoughts
Into something that you sort

So the magic of moonlight
Full of echoes inner sight
Gallops in the inner seem
Making it peruse a dream.

It is a whimsy of your lend
A tour and sail around a bend.

Lovely lovely morning read today Sy!
Reminds me of that song, "Moonlight Becomes You".
Now how about a spot of tea,
Stay awhile and chat with me?
~Morning hugs~

~Somewhere in my heart I'm always
dancing with you in the summer rain~

Gazing at the moon ?...it's you who captured her magic within your words.

A thoughtful trip, now this is true,
which you've sailed around the blue,
taking passengers at your behest,
to sail with you upon this quest...

then moonlight laid for us it's trail
perhaps to find the elusive grail?
First we pondered, then we wandered,
then we set in full the sails...

Forever take us on these trips,
and this Sir, not a wayward quip...

Good moooorning!

The combination of the moon's magic mixed in with that of your own, makes a divine coctail to be sipped slowly and savored!

Springtime hugs,

Perhaps you would ride the wind of fate with me. We have a similar current running though our work at this time.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

Ahh, yes Seymour, the moonlight does all of this and more....what a blessing! Lovely poem this morning. I know I am late, I had a doctor's appointment. So, since it is almost lunchtime here.....Enchantress sister of mine..put on the kettle and I will serve up the wildberry muffins. Okie Dokie?   hugs to you dear poet sir. Chris

Full of echoes inner sight
Gallops in the inner seem
Making it peruse a dream,

==============================

the moth is late...but just in time for your metered moonbeam to shine.
As always your imagery is as delightful as your cadence.
Shall we fly Randy to the stars.

I love the moonlight, Seymour.
It always has a romatic feel
to me. Of course, that could
be because I'm a hopeless romantic.
Hugs to you from me,

Sy, this brings a wonderful memory to my mind, one of moonlight falling on an old time ship that I had the chance to see in Alaska, as it drifted up the Inside Passage in the wee hours of the morning in the mist. Thank you for bringing alive that memory, and for this work of art!!!  ~~S~~

Accept these small gifts from my gypsy heart  ~~S~~

(sigh) Oh Seymour, this is lovely, sweet friend, moonlight seems to display the hieroglyphics that no one can see in the light alone and it seems to make a lot of difference! (big hugggsssssss) This is wonderous, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Seymour, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
