Night So Bright

Author: shadow1950

Night so bright, it is like middle of day
Full moon bathing all in her silvery light
moonbeams making a staircase to the clouds
stars so close you could reach out for one

Shadows and moonlight meet and blend together
the darkness fading as the rays light it up
all the planets shinning as the orbit the sun
magical mysterious night full of sultry promise

Times like this heal and soothe, completing us
there is beauty in the smallest of things, look
gaze around and ponder, let the moon work her magic
filling you with her mythical translucent silvery light

Hi Shadow, yes you have caught the night, really enjoyed this. The night in its full splendour, the moon , the stars, the magic. Oh yes, I did enjoy this. The night, the time of shadows. This is my time, the time of the Dark Man.
Catch you later,
MIKE.

the night is really captured in this poem as one gazes at the stars in the stillness,listening to the crickets

you hit a soft spot in my heart
the moon has the strongest attraction for me
maybe coz its my birth star

strangely i tell you and you won't believe me!

in Chinese,Indian,English astrology, my ruling planet is the moon!!
in fact there's also a new age type that also says moon as my ruling planet

and as a cancer, our ruling planet is the moon!

thank. you shadow
