Magnificent orb pure in glory
illuminating darkness, night
silent above; enhancing love
reflecting tiny diamonds bright
causing humans to ponder
could life be out yonder?
She culls magic, passion
moonstruck couples delight
once friends; hearts blend
ecstasy sown takes flight
until time comes to expire
Lady touches souls in desire!
Smiling at her old lazy man
resting in her ethereal fold
spirits content; imagery bent
wishes come true am told; by
the man in the moon above
he sits calculating true love
infinity

infinity. beautiful.
what more can I say?
I've always moved the idea of a man in the moon. last night I fell asleep in my chaise, talking to him.
Yes, the moon had a face. No it wasn't the three glasses of wine, it wan't anythin but the moon. I think he's trying to seduce me...LOL
Don't get me started, this is lovely,
thank you again,
jin

you are caught by the romance of moon light and dreams that circle like a halo the full moon when it comes. You state it beautifully.
Love, Tom B.
