Through the clear skies I gazed in wonder at the eclipsing of the orb of the moon in it's fading red glory of light your awe and mine beams in unison with light being swept away for just one moment in time and in infinity peeks filling us with delight I posted this as a reply to Martie's lovely rendition of her 'La Luna Dream In Firmament' and thought it looked so pretty that I just had to share it with my wonderful friends, at Passion's In Poetry. Hope you enjoy ! ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

hehe. I went outside to look at the eclipse a short time ago and the first thought in my mind was "How long will it take Marge to write a poem about this?" You didn't disappoint me, dear Marge  |

Satiate- Thank you sooooo much. Balladeer- Just the thought of us looking at the same moon, at the same time, and you knowing me well enough to know I'd just have to write about it ... fills me with awe ! I hope I never disappoint you. What a guy ! Does that make me a 'Luna'tic? See, we're even beginning to think alike ! LOL !

Beautiful shape, exquisite form; your poetry stands alone, and this time, in visual as well as poetic loveliness. Marge, you are one magnificently gifted poet! ...Living is ever like crossing rivers; finding a new life on each shore ... RJG |

This captured it well. Thank you for the words to that song, Marge. --Kess Full fathom five thy father lies, Of his bones are coral made, Those are pearls that were his eyes; Nothing of him that doth fade But doth suffer a sea-change Into something rich and strange... --William Shakespeare, from The Tempest |

I certainly did no question here You did fine again my dear And the graphical effect A drop of rain, a tear perhaps I did inspect Lines can say so much and added here a certain touch The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools. |

Marge, what you created with this poem was a perfect blend of the virtual, visual, tonal, and emotional values, and in such a simple, unassuming way... Beautiful! Congratulations, Willem |

Willem- Not to pop this one back to the top- but I couldn't let such a wonderful reply go without acknowledgement. Thank you for the accolades. Unassuming as I am ... I believe the moon, in all her glory, has shared the most illuminating glow to cover us all in wonder. Thank you so very much. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |
