Messages From the Moon I woke and saw the moon was high And spilling gold across the sky. I rose and went outside to see What messages she had for me. I sat in radiance so bright. A waterfall of lunar light. I breathed it in.It filled me up. The moon a pitcher, I, the cup. She told me many secrets there, But I can't tell.I wouldn't dare. I closed my eyes and must have slept, For later, I could see, she'd crept Far to the west and shadows came, All my yard to seize and claim.. I felt so lonely and bereft. An empty shell, the moon had left! Betty Lou Hebert [This message has been edited by Trillium (08-09-2003 05:30 PM).] |

gringakiwi: I'm glad you liked this. The moon is full on Tuesday, I believe and is always so beautiful at this time of year, here in the northwestern U.S. I suppose in most places! Thanks for commenting. Betty Lou Hebert |

This is beautiful. There is nothing I love more than sitting in wonderment and staring at the moon. Contemplating her wisdom and beauty. The phases of the moon are very powerful, from new to waxing, full, waning to dark. This is lovely - really lovel. Raven |
