I was freezing

Covered in icy tears,

Droplets, clung to

My cheeks, held on

For dear life, the heart

Of my body, chilled

To the marrow, breathless, idled

My arms, cold against the air

Yet, the winter warmed, as

Spring, emerging, awakens me,

Until, once again, I’m alive

It only takes faith

Even when you are alone

Just reach for the skies

fullmoon012416
Soft as velvet, blackened night
Luminous orb through shadows bright
Full in wonder, shining bright
Mesmerize us with celestial light

Illuminate the darkened sky
As the clouds go slowly drifting by
Enticing us from way up high
You captivate and mystify

Seducing us with golden splendor
To you, alas, we must surrender
Luna, Goddess of the Moon
With you, we are at last, attune

Warmth, dear winter’s bane,

Melts away the bitter blast

Twas once a cold heart

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse – Snow Moon – #photography of the #moon

Tags

, , , , , , , , , ,

Although it became quite misty, I was able to get some shots of  last night’s penumbral lunar eclipse.  I hope you enjoy  🙂

This is the full moon, known as the Snow Moon, coming up over the mountain, roughly 5:50PM EST 2/10/17

img_3559The full moon with a subtle sign of the eclipse.  Look lower left corner to see the Earth’s shadow.  Approx: 6:25 PM EST 2/10/17

img_3563It was getting very hazy but you can still see the eclipse partially covering the left side of the moon.  Approx: 7:15PM EST 2/10/17

img_3564 While the haze still lingered, you can now see the soft shadow of the penumbral eclipse of the full moon.  Approx: 7:50 PM EST 2/10/17

img_3582The last picture isn’t so great but it still shows the amazing beauty of our celestial bodies.  ❤
