Under The Shadow of the Moon Earths' Iris of stunning blue, The luminous white of milky clouds, Radiant in contrast to the shadowed veils Of a face so fair, and yet, eyes shaded by frost; The frost of winter, a halo of barren hopes, The face before me, Which fills my soul with compassions pangs. You are high and beautiful, like a shrouded dream, But the sadness in your countenance causes me to blink. Sad and lovely, a demeanor tinted with sorrow, Much like a Willow, sleek and comely Yet, draped about the earths cold surface Hanging heavy with many cares. Enchanting, and darkened deep Under the shadow of the moon. ·´~`·»Garapan«·´~`· |

Exquisite, Garapan. Sometimes sadness enriches so much that beauty grows from it, if the recipient allows it. - Owl |

You are absolutely correct, Sir Owl. Sometimes sorrow invokes a form of beauty all it's own. Thank you! ·´~`·»Garapan«·´~`· |
