Loves Moon

Loves Moon
Her ore and shine she’s like the moon
To orbit these skies with lovers tune
Silvery splendor the nights only one
Moonlight it floods, till she’s gone
In wondrous clouds upon the waves
Mirrors her face, on ocean ways
Night of mine she’s amid the stars
Each never gleams, as quite you are
Distantly dazzle shall not wither
By my side, I ask [...]

She’s like the moon

She’s like the moon
She’s like the moon
And orbit my heart to lovers tune
On earth she’s the only one
And still I look when nights gone,
Fill and fill my sky afar
And silver in night you are
Far away she’s like the moon
And orbit my heart to lovers tune,
Come close to hither
And eclipse me but never wither
She’s a star [...]

The Moon and The Sun

The Moon and The Sun

and a million stars shine brightly tonight

The moon and the stars are hidden away
day light dawns the sun in the distance
not gone forever but blinded by persistence.

Would future sights be merely dull?

A place for a full moons presence to be a treasure
wish such a place was not light-years away,
For a night sky’s magic to [...]

Lunar Night

Lunar Night
Lay bare on a hillside enrich the deepest darks
mirrored on a shattered lake of glass,
broaden the night congress among stars.
Willow trees weep to a waters edge
a dozen brown moths flutter beyond,
golden dust falls by leaves a moth’s chosen path
our full moon beauty mysteriously bound.
My golden moon once was our relic
shone down a gleaming charm [...]

Black Moon

Black Moon
A blackened moon once was a relic
shon down a gleaming charm on silver lined sky
her years of glory, eclipsing, rotating, waiting
though shortening, shattering, soon to die.

Midnight

Midnight
Rest a restless body upon a window ledge,
identical stars shine communally – one rare shooting star for us to pledge. Through moisture window pains gaze high up at a universe,
moonlight reflected by aluminum-bodied cars for its light to disperse.
Porch lights channeling, centering to a point in the distance,
pathways catching light – curbs causing shadows at [...]

The Moon

The Moon
Luminous moon
Enlighten the night,
Twinkling stars
Glowing with light,
Behind is the sun
Keeping it bright,
Shining in darkness
It blazes alight.
