  My Beautiful Ghost

A chill October wind
blows a few ragged
clouds across a
thousand miles
of evening twilight.
The giant yellow moon
hangs the east horizon,
as  moonlit splendor
floods the sky
to penetrate this
trace of vanishing
  wilderness
and make the
shadows dance
to Autumn’s tune.
In this ever-passing
  world
of fleeting dreams
what shall I do,
my beautiful ghost,
when you have
long forgotten
all the love songs
of my heart.

Sure do like these lines SHDP:

quote:
"what shall I do,
my beautiful ghost,
when you have
long forgotten
all the love songs
of my heart".

Lovely imagery throughout your poetry here.

Thanks Ms. M. ! ...

I'm "hangin' in here" ... still traversing these fine blue sands of 'P.I.P.-land' by the cyber-sea ...
and scatterin' my ever-so-humble lil' "poetic seeds" along the way. Sadly, so many fine folks
are gone now.
