Listening to every heart

Clarity’s Light




Moon phases glisten
That I might see shadows dance
Gleeful fantasies

~*~

Then, it happens,
clarity’s light
comes from you, whether I see
a sliver of a smile or
fully effaced glee,
tickled as you were from
the slightest touch…

I sought to        capture you…
but you phased away
with slim light time,
only to haunt my dreams
hanging persistent in
shadowed beams

Still, you stir me, as
I sense your pull and tug ~
so dear, dear moon,
dance the skies
from dusk till dawn…
and greet me with
a smiling yawn.


Karilea - if I whisper, will you listen?  Keeping in mind, I must stand close...and keep my promises...

You tease me with your yearning...
Oh...you're talking to the moon...dang

Beautiful phrasing, Sunshine.  Ken

Through rubble and trouble and dark of night
The yawn of a dawn will hasten the light

this was shear perfection dear lady
a wondrous mix of hues, slowly perfected into this great ball of orange flame...
outstanding!

Go ahead, capture
Whisper into night, your dreams,
Fluid or solid

Laugh every moon phase,
And "dance like no one's watching"

So good to be back here reading, and being inspired....

I just love being poetically mooned.
lovely moonstruck verse.
