"The night walked down the sky
with the moon in her hand "
Fredric Lawrence Knowles

Moon Addict~


Waxing crescent
a silver slice of addiction,
the so slender arc of what could be,
a tease of light..
a please of light..
that hangs almost touchable
against a wish-upon-a-star-night.
In moon struck stare
bathed and seduced,
its glow
a slow drip
to skin,
and landscape.

Twist the iridescent wedge..
wring poem and pleasure,
rain-barrel the quicksilver promise
in the dark,
squeeze the cut cantaloupe to mouth,
its tip heavy
with juice of the ages,
lips smack of Moon-Soul,

come

taste

my

kiss..

No other celestial has inspired lovers and poetry so much as the Moon.
Its silvery influence may cool the night...Ah! But it warms the heart.

As does your poetry, Miss Sky.
