Of Moonlit Nites (vi)

Of Moonlit Nights (ii)

The moon is out tonite
Turning the darkness to lite
A beautiful sight
Hues of pale white
Bathe the crystal nite
A night silent and serene
like a scene from a dream
The unstirred perfection
Of a clear pond reflection,

The moon is out tonite ,
Making the nite bright
Silent all the same
I feel it call my name
to come out and play
Come dance and sway
Or perhaps join in a walk,
Maybe pause to talk,

The moon is out tonite
And its not lonely tonight
For I walk beneath its light
Moonlight dancing on my skin
With delicacy and skill
light blends with dark’s will
A pearly mixture rushes forth
Light without warmth

The moon is out tonite
Pale rays of icy light
Seemingly cold and lifeless
Yet oddly bold and priceless
Taking nothing
Asking for nothing
giving everything
smiling face of the nighttime sun
A, place for memories to run.

    This is the third poem of yours I have read, and they are all very good. The last one I read seemed you were reading my heart.
    I have a book of poems I am creating to publish. Not very long started. Only written about a dozen so far over the past year.
    Thanks for sharing.

        It is still early to tell. However, I am about to get my first novel in a series to the publishers. NEVER B4 ON NEW YEAR’S: When Faith Turns At Midnight.
        Take Care.
