Magic-
          in the mystic moonlight
from dolphin's mouth crystal waters arch -
moonbeams dance in silver ripples
under a canopy of lilac blossoms..
a bench invites romance ~
glow-worms between branches flicker
their little lanterns
           in a ceremonial dance.


Hands   move gently - voices whisper
lips discover love's sweet mead
hearts in joyous rhythm beat
passion grasps with hungry arms
          captive love in fierce embrace.


Hide not your mystic face   pale moon
dawn's victory comes all too soon.

Moonlight romance
Fireflies to dance
Couples will prance
Moonlight enhance.


Well written!  Ken

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

Though the form may be modern, at its heart, this poem seeps the blood of Byron and Shelly...The things of Romance might change, from generation to generation...but the spirit of it does not... as is shown so plainly in this poem...

The picture fits the poem well, invites the story, yet for some reason I see the ghost of
Keats, sitting on the bench, lamenting..

"The day is gone, and all its sweets are gone!"

A soothing and romantic poem. This month's moon is so bright and invites lots of fantasies of romance.

I enjoyed this so much.  Hugs, Marti
