tim's Bits and Pieces - 58. The Moon Poems
The Moon Poems
1.
It’s been a constant,
each month of my life
It waxes, wanes and
is full, new and blue
And I childishly believed,
the Man in the Moon
ate the cheese.
2.
In the very early of the morning
The skies are thick with shades of
grey
I wonder if o’er the felted sky
The moon still shines as bright?
3.
We walk together you and I
Under the cold and moonlit sky
Our hands clasped
Hearts as one
The moon’s cool brilliance lights our path
while around us dark forests shun its glow
Their moody shadows await our misstep
ready to swallow us should we stray
4.
Bright moonlight illuminates the path I walk
It leads to our sweet meeting place
Where we’d hold each other and gently kiss
And I’d delight in your strong embrace
Summer’s cool evening breezes found us
Sharing wine, bread and cheeses; hard
Our laughter could be heard o’er the glen
and echoed softly in the old churchyard
When the harvest moon, its light did share
We’d meet and then, after a glass or two
O’er this tidy, rolling path we’d wander
Marveling at the orb’s, glorious, orange hue
Most winter nights were never clear
And the moon’s soft, reflected glow
Would lighten the grey, woolen skies
As arm-in-arm we walked below
Now full circle, has our life come
This path, again, I walk on my own
Above, the moon is full and bright
But March winds chill me to the bone
The moon aloft is my only company
While I add fresh flowers before your stone
I’m lonely, my heart hitches and I know
Soon you’ll no longer reside here alone
You and I will have eternity together
Fulfilling the promises, we each had made
We’ll stroll this path forever and always
Under the moon’s brilliant cascade.
