as I stand here and gaze into the heavens this dark, inky sky ahhh . . . now I see you my love my bright, shining Gibbous Moon the dark cloud moved on into the night showing the heavens my spirituality for I am as one whether you are a mere Crescent Moon timidly showing mere tantalizing part of yourself I may only guess what is hidden in the darkness which is you its as if you are having wicked fun at my expense time gives me the taste of your delicious and tempting Half Moon glow of iridescence revealing more of yourself although it seems the more you show the more is hidden you are giving me an exotic, spectral dance befitting your lofty aspirations an enticing, though half naked smile I stand here wishing the nights would flow faster as each night slowly evolves into the next one you know I will be there again and again waiting patiently waiting for your final unveiling which will finally bring to light my patient lover you in all your majestic glory a huge, bright and lustrous Full Moon rising I almost sob ©May 12, 2016 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |

May I say in reply to your very well crafted poem Jerry, that I wandered as a 'Crescent', became a "Gibbous" when I found hope and emerged 'Full, bright and shining when I fell in love with Linny Jean. She is my celestial angel of grace and charm. quote:This I quote of your poem is, "poetry in motion (remembering Johnny Burnette) and it moves me every time I read it. Thanks for the above space Jerry. Your pen has a perpetual glow about it. Always 'full and shining'. Loving Linny Jean is poetry. |
