BEYOND THE MOON
Moonlight fantasies
soaring across
a midnight sky
within dreams of night
and the future’s edge
we dance upon black velvet
a spiraling upward climb.
Ever higher we soar
toward the full moon
at midnight’s hour,
through the darkness
and beyond the haze
that sometimes clouds
my vision and my heart.
Embracing the dream
and fantasy’s flight,
silver visions of the night,
treasures dwelling
upon this velvet tapestry
I close my eyes
as we soar into the night
where love abounds
and comforts my soul,
as I dream the dreams
meant just for me
within a midnight sky
and silver fantasy.

Written for "A Simple Sunday" which this week featured the multi-talented Heidi Foley (Inky). It's always an honor to write a piece to the work of one of my friends.

ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Leeza! "Exquisite work" indeed. Heidi is so very talented. I'm so glad to be able to share here work in this way and honored to be able to write a piece to it.
DeleteHi Barbara...I totally love this. I am a unicorn lover, and moon too. Superbly written. I am trying to follow you using my blogger profile. will let you know when I've done it :)
ReplyDeleteHi, Divinia -- I'm so glad you found me here. Until last week it had been such a long time since I had posted a piece here. And though I've had this account for such a long time I hadn't posted much on it at all. I love the format though and the fact that we're now able to reply to comments here which I don't think was the case earlier. I found your blogger blog and will follow you there too.
