Blue Moon Rising
by Linda L. Dowd

Steeped in mystery,
shadows creep ‘cross unmarked stones.
With blue moon rising,
lost dead roam the gated grounds.
~Absence of life chills to bone.

Dear Ida ~

Yes, 'tis I.

It's a dull, rainy day here and at times that brings out the darker side of my writing. After all, too much sunshine could blind me! ~ and others!

Loves 'n hugs,
Linda

For an instant I felt that chill too, my dear Angelo Terrestre, but then I saw Angel wings gather those lost souls and carry them to the entrance gate of Home ... and the blue moon suddenly smiled warmly.

I love how you bring across mystery!

A very impressive write, Linda girl.

Love you,
Margherita

My dear Maga Margherita Que Bonita ~

You always manage to see the silver lining to any dark cloud ~ as do I, Spirit Sister.

With love and affection,

Once in a blue moon is supposed to be a rare treat, a true wonder. But every poem of your's Linda, is that blue moon, that guides the soul here and now, as well as, here and after.

You are, the blue star rising dear poet,
shrouded in mystery, and sparkling in glistening secrets.
