The crescent moon beckons in tongues sung softly that only I may hear Refuge in her pale light the night a blanket black that comforts me Her silver rays shine subtle light into my room where deep in thought I lay I wish I were more like her but then I think maybe I am sometimes full but mostly half of what all I should be [This message has been edited by Aenimal (11-26-2002 10:59 PM).] |

Beautiful! I love moonlight, the way it makes the shadows dance across the sky and in the world beneath it. Such muted elegance can only be illuminated in the whisper of night! ![]() ![]() |

Aenimal To be at crescent is good...a changing thing, growing, yet still beautiful. Enjoyed this. |

Ah! Another spill of moonlight upon these blue pages. And the questing? continues. Don't get so lost within yourself, that you lose your bearings (marbles?) Ed |

Thank you Martie very nice words.. Wranx of course you're right and while sometimes I do get lost. But sometimes in losing oneself we find paths we'd never have found. There must be some happy medium but it eludes me still. |

![]() (smiles) Oh Aenimal, I truly think it is a blessing to be crescent, for no man is perfect and as our hearts grow with love and wisdom and we nurture the child within, an eclipse, an epiphany, a sprout of life is born and we find true light of happiness within the phenomenon! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Aenimal, thank you for sharing! ![]() May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

I enjoyed reading your poem. It was very pretty. I love the moon, stars, sunsets and sunrises, and the poems written about them. Thanks for sharing with us. "Love makes the world go around" |

i found that so peaceful and descriptive.thankyou. i'm saving this, it was like a lullaby. soft and soothing. despite the feeling youre half of what you can be, you also have the knowledge that you've still yet to grow in to your 'full moon'! and i'm sure with this recognition, you'll soon be there. lots of love and hope,gemma xxxxx p.s with each reading of each of your poems, you already appear to me, complete as a poet. learning each day, for you and i, our paths have met, i've already learnt that you are love. |
