I Come in the Moonlight |

I come to you in the moonlight I whisper in the wind With haunting softness as is my right And comfort round me trimmed So if I come, I stay awhile Give you cause to make you smile I travel on the moonlight To kiss your lips in dark Gentle caress to give heart flight With love that leaves its mark If I arrive, I come to stay Be with you till the break of day I whisper in the moonlight Sounds of surrender sweet Your shining heart gives off light When this is how we meet If I whisper soft and clear I'll stay till morning finds me here. So look for me in moonlight When the moon is full On moonbeams dance, my soul in flight For passion is the tool That draws me through the moons rays To give you hope for your days I'll come to you by moonlight Though hell shall bar the way For loving in this one full night Hell is the price I gladly pay So if I come by moonlight love, please take me, lift me up above. Religion is for people frightened about going to hell - Spirituality is for people who have been there. Anon. |

Oh my goodness, if all of the Passionate poets start writing like this, I'm going to have to build a whole NEW library, to heck with the annexes! Kethry! This is wonderful! Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Kethry~ This is just so soft and lovely. 'If I arrive, I come to stay Be with you till the break of day' Ahhhhhhh ... yes ! Your muse is whispering sweet, sweet thoughts. Muchly enjoyed, my dear. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

I thought you WERE the moonlight. Now I am confused. WOW my friend. You have been dipping into the pool of passion for sure and eating the petals from the rose of romance. Loved this one and the visions of you shimmering across the sky. A life with love will have some thorns, but a life without love will have no roses. author unknown |
