In Praise Of The Moon

Round and round you go on your voyage,
From stormy deserts to icy maze,
Shining your silvery facade.

Many beauties wait for the night,
For they bloom under your sight,
Primrose, Gladiolus, Lilies, Moon flower,
Crave for a glimpse of your light shower,
You are the dream of every dreamer,
Spinning dreams down the river.

Every night forests resound,
With thy lover’s featly sound,
As you drench the realm in white light,
Songs are heard from fairies and sprites,
Cold comfort of your embrace,
A soft breeze on earth’s face.

To your enchanting call, waves rise,
Splashing treasures that oceans hide.
Dancing to your tune on those nights,
Waves reach to great heights.
You are magician of the night sky,
Perched atop on mountain so high.

Round and round you go on your voyage,
From stormy deserts to icy maze,
Shining your silvery facade.

I love the way your moon poem goes full circle, Vandana, and I especially love the lines:
‘Cold comfort of your embrace,
A soft breeze on earth’s face’.

What a lovely ode to the moon! These words ring true: "you are the dream of every dreamer,/Spinning dreams down the river."
What will we ever do without the moon and its white light? :-)
