The Night is Calling

The Night is Calling

A Poem by Ahmad Cox

The Night is Calling
The Moon is beckoning
Me under her beautiful
And Ethereal glow calling
All night owls who happen
To stray too far away from
Home on a beautiful night
Like this are ever trapped in 
Your light and mesmerized
Like a moth to a flame 
Reaching for you and 
Feeling your heavenly
Influence and tug on the
Earth like two drunken
Dancers you dance in 
Space together circling
Around each other in
A loving embrace that
Will continue to play
Out night after night
Day after day as the
Earth and the Moon
And even the Sun
Begin to play as they
Circle around each other
Day in and day out
Calling to the wayward
Soul who happens upon
Their dance and feels
The ever present tug 
And influence of our
Beautiful Moon when
The night is calling and
'The Sun is still deep
Asleep in its bed

I love the imagery in this, especially this part:
"and mesmerized
Like a moth to a flame"

Really nice write, I also like the title choice.

Thank you. The night truly is calling our name.
I like this, I'm one of those crazy people who can't sleep so often I'll go for a walk in the middle of the night. This one calls my name. Nice.

Oh, another beautiful write of the moon and the sun! I like to be the soul who happens upon their dance and feels the influence of our beautiful moon!

She is wonderful indeed
This is a beautiful poem.
But I just love the last 2 lines:
'The sun is still deep
as sleep in its bed.'

WELL DONE

Thank you. :)
I agree with Elizabeth. This was quite the sensual way of describing the dance in our solar system.

Love and spirituality and sensuality are very intertwined

It was very well demonstrated in this write.
As I said before, I used to like the night very much and this is pretty much how I felt. :)

Nicely written! :)

I love how you describe the earth and moon in such a sensual way. The sun too. It's as if, in the sky, the universe is making love to itself haha
