the moon hangs heavy, bright orange and large tonight I am consumed with its beauty I look away I don't know, something different about it but I take another look feel like the strange moon has enveloped me that feeling dissolves my wariness still, I feel my flesh crawl the silhouette darts in and out of the moon's luster I don't know maybe I am hallucinating the silhouette looks familiar I'm not sure it isn't even there oooh, the orange brightness of the moon wraps me in its embrace I feel intimacy complete the silhouette who . . . what . . . is it have I finally seen the man in the moon ©October 23, 2015 /.

good one ! (especially for the month of Halloween) ... I always feel most 'connected' to some 1500 yrs. of my Celtic ancestors during this month (seems like a veil between worlds within worlds is thinnest in Oct. and beyond midnight) ... especially beneath that Autumn moon! |

I think a full moon and Halloween comes at the same time this year. Thanks, Lori. ~*~ When they give you ruled paper write sideways. ~*~ |

They're predicting ring here so there goes both of them effectively. But, those weather-witches can't accurately predict this afternoon, so maybe they blow Halloween too. j. |

Hah! . . . Actually I tend to agree with you, Jimmy. With all that sophisticated equipment at their fingertips, they are sometimes better off to walk outside and hold their fingers above their heads to see if it will rain or not. ~*~ When they give you ruled paper write sideways. ~*~ |
