Moon-Gaze…

Moon Beams The Moon dressed
in all her white glory, stares
  down with ever careless gaze, at those
who worship her stark beauty, by looking
upward marking every phase.  Her spectral
light doth truly glisten, upon the restless ever
churning sea, as with every waxing ‘n
waning she lives, the tidal waves
follow her focal symmetry.

  2. Oh, this is a perfect work, Pen. Yes, we’re like the tide, caught under the Moon’s gracious spell, glistening with her reflected glory. You have captured the magic of her beauty so well.

  3. I love the symmetry of your prose, which I believe to be intentional–It looks like the moon! 😀 I particularly love this line: “Her spectral
    light doth truly glisten, upon the restless ever
    churning sea…”

  4. For some reason, a moonlit night like this, makes me feel the vastness of our earth and the smallness of me in it much more than a sunny day. I reflect, inwardly, in the presence of the moon because of that vastness.

  5. Tender hearted words, a moon lite night “in all her white glory”;
    a curious reflection perhaps? well deserved, in my mind! with love, Eddie

  6. This is a beautiful collection of words that portray the experience of moon worship, cause and effect and the beauty of nature, Pen. It is a very enjoyable set of verses that become more lovely with each reading. Like the sea the depth brings more substance to the read.

    • Arrrrgh!!! I wish I knew where it was Eva, and I’d race you there… I saw a film recently where the hero had a beach house, totally beautiful surroundings and so, so quiet….I thought why can’t I have that? Lottery money would allow methinks… ⭐ so fingers crossed, closed eyes and wish ⭐ . 😀 xxx
