In the silence of the night
I could hear her calling
Whispers, through the glass

In the silence of the night
I could feel her presence
As by me, she did pass

In the silence of the night
Wisps of hair, on my face
Danced, like a beautiful ballet

In the silence of the night
She had drawn me outside
And I let her take me away

Her colors blazed, about the sky
And twinkling stars, stood on standby

They knew better than to eclipse her light
Beaming sheer radiance, in their sight

Purples and blues, adorned her face
Clouds of orange, added to her grace

The lights of the night, beheld her, proud
A nebula, Heaven’s most beautiful cloud

Ginger hair, dressed in black

Darkness, drawn to light

She stands in silence, gazing

At the rays, that grace the night

Chancing they are moonbeams

She ventures, closer still

The night air, warm as summer

Yet, she could feel its chill

She waits, so impatiently

For a sign, to tell her why

The sunlight replaces darkness

She fears, the moon has lost the sky

Faceless ~ #poetry – plight of the #homeless

They remain faceless
Lost, in an unforgiving world

Humanity, is tasteless
On the streets, their lives, unfurled

Sneers from others, laughter
People can be so cruel

Life is a living disaster
Why isn’t this unusual?

Homeless, they fight the sun
Before night and cold alight

Hoping to find anyone
Praying for those who might

Show compassion, lend a hand
Find them shelter from the cold

For they are, just as we are, human
Hoping, they too, can grow old

Friday Fantasy ~ Conspire – #poetry of the #moon

Cast me a spell, that sets, like a fire

Flames in the darkness, my truest desire

Words that shadow, as the night closes in

Allow me to follow, when the spirits begin

Their incantations, to darken the light

The wakening of Luna, full and bright

Cast me a spell, my one true desire

The moon, my soul, to wickedly conspire
