Moonlight

thru the A-frame wall of glass,
framed, its brilliance
almost equal to a woman's,
but not equal
to those women
I have admired,
or I have touched,
the few I have loved,
& always their eyes
capture the moon
like Old Seventy Creek can
& I have gazed into the depth
of that water,
but I have not understood
the least of it
until this moment.

    this poem, to me, is saying what you see in the reflection of a woman's eyes....is what you, yourself, put there, through your love...it works when a woman looks at a man with love as well. I really like this poem...lovely imagery & thoughts brought forth while reading..thank you..

    Seldom do we understand or appreciated the depth of something until we move on and had ample time to mull over our experiences and relationships. I really enjoy the way you deftly incorporate elements of nature into your poems.

    As always, I enjoy reading your work and the lessons garnered from doing so.

    There are writers on this site and then there's a handful of poets who create art and touch the soul of their craft. This is just sublime.

      David,
      I agree with you that there are writers on this site and there are poets... I keep going back to the poets.

      As for contests, I would not have a gold trophy if the person who ran the contest had not begged me to enter. I don't enter as a rule. Broke my rule that one time...

      I do always appreciate your honesty and opinions...

      Rudy
