Melancholy moonlight

Shines a melancholy moon tonight,
Blue, it’s slowly waning light,
A thousand tear drops light the sky,
Stars from heaven from her blue eye,

Giant whispers float down stream,
Sailing in my perfect dream,
Playful streaming wisps of hair,
Falling, an angel hears my prayer,

As lightning tears my soul apart,
A delicate thunder beats my heart,
An angel mends my inner aching,
In my dreams and in my waking,

On the wind glides her soft, sweet breath,
Her beauty shines through tragic death,
And in her eyes lies all her love,
Stolen and taken up high above.

From this melancholy moon tonight,
Shines a golden halo of light,
Angel from heaven protects our way,
And guides me to another day.

Zu, this is such a beautiful piece. I am extremely impressed.
The flow of this was really nice, and it helped me to picture the moonlight...really smooth.
The imagery was incredible. Quite light, and your personifications matched it too. A very peaceful poem, indeed. One of the best I've read so far. Till later! Glad to see you posting again too!

I really enjoyed these lines.  I dont know why, so dont ask.  Something about them just really appealed to my poetic senses.  Hmmm...

Wowsers..
"As lightning tears my soul apart,
A delicate thunder beats my heart,
An angel mends my inner aching,
In my dreams and in my waking,"

I LOVED that stanza.  Awesome flow throughout the piece.  The imagery, and the language sounds very professional.  I am very impressed, Mr. Zu   Awesome work!
