Dwelling in an awake dream: Old October magic stirs The mind of a poet. In that mind A woman still trembles At his touch.. With desire she can't hide. "and all the nights magic seems to whisper and hush" "And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your (her) blush." The poet laments... "Can I just have one more moondance with you, my love" Enjoyable poems have high effect on me. They make me think deeply on their subject. This one is no exception, being profound in its simplicity.

something about harvest moons that first chill in the air against the first warm glow of a burning fire with a moon in the background rekindles the sleeping lover in all of us |

"a Harvest moon a cornfield and us moondancing" great Impressionistic imagery ! (however, that 'ol moon can be a rather dangerous thing!) |

Thanks, secondhanddreampoet, and I quite understand the tragic influence the moon can have on us. Appreciate you reading and commenting on this poem. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |
