Moonlight on pale skin
Swaying in rocky glen
Grey billows scrub familiar face
Darkened by vernal eclipse
Soon you are gone
My quantum entanglement
Cannot define my self
Without
Yet I still feel you
I have enough faith
To speak to the night sky
To speak to my darkness
My agitation I am so trying to quell
I have learned so much
About love
Can't you tell?
Author notes
Option 6, inspired by contest title
This past easter, the vernal equinox was also a lunar eclipse. It was very cloudy here that night, and my daughter was in a school play. I slipped out to monitor the changes. Finally writing about it...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYK_Bemj29s

Love the choice of words and the imagery created here. I remember that vernal equinox/eclispe as well (2008, right?) and WOW was it amazing. This is a beautiful tribute to it.

spiritually deeply reflective, in the essence of the word. So very well written. You surely do not let memorable moments slip by.

Yet I still feel you
I have enough faith
To speak to the night sky
To speak to my darkness
Penumbra-shadow?wonderful story behind the words.
I took a little extra time, because if you put it there in the author's notes, it must be important.
Beautiful song, lovely poem, best wishes and blessings always,
