 Lavender Blues Tonight the moon in paleness full Gathers all who view with waiting eyes As darkness looms, and sun goes down They see the beauty of lavender skies. Desires glitter in eyes like stars That rise and flicker on the velvet vast Caged the passion, of those in love Shadow enhanced by moonbeams cast. Leaving trails of falling stars Caressed by breezes in the night That kiss them lightly as they walk Their passions reign in soft moonlight. Throughtout the shadows laced in glow A painted sky begins it's play The silent music sings it's song Of beauty's dawning on it's way. Wrapping up in circled warmth As moon begins it's wane this night They kiss the dark and dance their touch In silent dreams, of lavender light. ©Maureen Scully *2k |

A beautiful poem Maureen we have campfires here and when the kids head to bed ... I sit and watch the fire burn down ... sometimes the wife joins me and we watch the moon and talk well done Rex |
