the Golden Moon

Missing image
She is the golden Moon of light that travels by and by
She leaves when day is calling and the Sun lights up the sky
But sometimes she gets curious and lingers just to see
If life by day is all that it is all made out to be

The golden Moon she rises when the sun glows up above
She brings us all her mystery that’s bound with golden love
Embracing us in warming light and a smile of riches fair
Our love is full of wonder when the golden Moon is there

When dusk fall down upon us we will see her shining face
Sending us her happiness that falls most every place
And when the stars are shining she will see us through with light
Cradled in her loving arms throughout the coming night

The golden Moon she rises and she stretches cross the land
Laying down her shadows that she touched with gentle hands
With the cooing of the Doves below she’ll sail with us till dawn
Rocking on the waves of life till another day is born

Sometimes you will see her in the morning light of day
Looking out on waking skies as she slowly slips away
To rest till night is calling and she raises up her head
And sings us golden lullabies as the sun slips off to bed

The golden Moon she rises to our love that we both share
Her kisses planted on our dreams she holds with tender care
And our hands entwined in harmony will feel her wisping by
While Angels dance in heaven and the Moon lights up the sky

    Strange how the moon still retains it's mystery and romance even after men have walked on it's surface. In the 'good old days' she was known as the 'Parish lantern' and many gardeners would worked by her light after a long days work in the fields. There are also people who swear by planting crops by the phrases of the moon for better results. As one man said the moon controls the tides why not the growth of plants?
    I digress, your poem is gentle and romantic I enjoyed it.

    Mmm... The mysticism of nature. You beautifully captured one of the little pieces of magic that happens daily, and that often goes unseen.

    This is such a lovely pleasure to read. Gentle and light as air and about as far away as you can get from the stress of daytime living. Something that I really wish I had thought of and written myself. Very nice. Sheila

    It is strange how a lump of seemingly dead rock can stir such feelings and emotions on us.An excellent piece that has fine rhyme and flow, which makes for most enjoyable reading

      Thanks, Legend. You probably noticed that I did my best to lose all those 'and's' that kept creeping in. Thanks for the encouragement.
