a moonbeamโ€ฆ

desires encapsulate me like the moon,
as inside my being I swoon,
looking to the sky,
watching the

moon
go
by

as clouds filter through
the darkness,
the shadow of which
becomes the
hardest

to recognize

it is the mirrored
reflection I see, when
dancing with the trees

and
becoming
more than
one dreamed

until the last particle of
my being is seenโ€ฆ

and, love is blossomed in-between
the rivers full of life,
and me

a moonbeamโ€ฆ

wish upon the birdsโ€ฆ

moon encrusted evening, walking among the fields
of daisies, birds circling in air, like thoughts
running through

veins,
fare and,
attention
made
bare

I dream of other lands, while grounded in the past,
and wish upon the birds, their beauty, at
times

misunderstoodโ€ฆ

slowly, I crane toward the sky, their look is a
glimpse of magnificence, we all
should

take into
account, and
be proud of the beauty
throughout

the moments given, each one is sacred, bestowed
upon us with a love that is
thrilling
and

delightful, just like the pink hues look, as they
swallow my past, and take me towards
the present moment

at
last
it is
a stark
contrastโ€ฆ

conjure up love, wildlyโ€ฆ

fingers trace the landscape, of a love once
beloved, just as the tree limbs speak
to me, of the dream
living inside
the breeze,
so
does

the gloom, remind me of lessons learned, from
the myriad pushes, and pulls,
orbiting around
the
sunsโ€™
moonโ€ฆ

itโ€™s as if the flowers were speaking to ancient
lands, bestowing their kindness
within, of the time,
sands

as
they continue to focus on our hearts, showing us
how to conjure up love, wildly,
while allowing our
souls
to
ignite nightlyโ€ฆ

the moons gentle bestowing

the moon is always calling to me, through
the vastness of the space, in-
between

the stars and galaxiesโ€ฆ

I rest easy in this knowing, learning more about
myself through the reflection of
the moons gentle
bestowing

kind and compassionate, sitting in the sky, just for our
eyes, like a dreamer,
disguised

in plain view, the nature of listening to the wind,
and learning from the whispers
carried on the backs
of

those we call our friendsโ€ฆtrees, flowers, and all of natureโ€™s
creations, call forth
a love

living at the center of the cosmos, providing protection
from the storms that enter mind, and heart
at the same time

while we sit back, breathe in, and realize that life is,
just now,
in this moment,
already in love

with
all weโ€™ve already givenโ€ฆ

the love we feel on this night

the moon
speaks to me,
languages learned
through discorded earth

traveling from afar,
I quest into
the understanding shown,
close to heart, and
yet still from afar,
Iโ€™ve learntโ€ฆ

โ€ฆthrough
distances purged,
I indulge in the urge, and
request more at the moons behest,
as seeing, sees fit
to offer more,
closing the distances met

between me,
and the seas,
trees, and flowers
blooming abundantlyโ€ฆ

realizing love
is at the center
of all things seen,
and felt in-between
the moons myriad phases,
and my truncated

belief
in this dreamโ€ฆfor it is

in the unseen,
where life lives in this moment,
as you and I hold hands,
wish upon a star,
say goodnight to the moon,
and swoon, as delight

lights
up our hearts,
and makes space
for the love
we feel
on this
night

in full bloomโ€ฆ

the breeze that glistens

Photo by Evan Leith on Unsplash

I flitter
at the moonโ€™s
presence
within my
aboded center

as

nostalgia
runs deep, like a
never-ending crater
while I sleep

and,

dream of
places far from
imagination,
yet all hiding
within
our hearts center
of creation

following
the line in the sand,
I trail behind,
and ask for a plan

and,

in the silence,
a mirror image
remerges
of you and me, glowing
brightly,

just like
the moon nightly

bright, brilliant,
and full of promises
to be given,
as we stop,
and listen
to the breeze
that glistens
