Venus and the Moon 7/15/18
Look up to the sky, see Venus and the moon
A sight that will surely make lover’s swoon
Snuggled up close, bright lights in the dark
Two celestial orbs, ignite an everlasting spark

I am honored to have my poem, “Renew” published on Vita Brevis. My sincere thanks to Brian Geiger, editor, for choosing to include my work, thus sharing with the Vita Brevis community, and all of you.
Submitted by Dorinda Duclos.
Soft is the twilight that lingers so calm
Reflections of beauty, becoming my balm
I breathe in, relax, reenergize my thoughts
Into the night, I can forever be lost
For this is the time, my time, to renew
And these are the visions I bring into view
Waters that flow, without causing a wake
The sky looking down, as one with the lake
Pastel, the colors that soften the day
This is the place my soul longs to stay

There are notes, floating, in the breeze
Clinging, steadfast, to the trees
Music written, for the eyes to hear
Words that sing, to those held dear
I can only imagine, what each note holds
Perhaps a wish, where a secret unfolds
Or a trinket, shared, from a woman’s purse
I’m sure each note, is quite diverse
So I’ll hang a wish, upon this tree
And hope it comes true, for thee and me
Join Sue, every Thursday, as she delights us with a new photo (or two)! Thanks again, for another beautiful photo prompt!

Rest easy now, my dear friend
Let the angels be your wings
To carry you, safely home
Where the carolers do sing
Songs, to lift your heavy heart
So you know you’re not alone
Music, the heavens will impart
Hear the gentle trumpets blown
Rest easy now, my dear friend
Far away from the world at war
For God has lifted you up to Him
Your burdens are no more

Who dwells upon the dark side
Concealed in the ebony night
Who is he who turns away
When hiding from the light
Of Heaven’s solar star
Casting radiance on his face
Hoping to wake the man in the moon
Asleep in outer space
“There is no dark side in the moon, really. Matter of fact, it’s all dark” – Gerry O’Driscoll
