Eclipse

Eclipse

A Poem by GailAlexander
"

Once again I personify the moon during an eclipse as having a benign side and a sinister side.

"

 

Let us watch the moon

hide herself away

behind a black velvet veil

of shadow.

Outlined by a

pearly luminescent light,

she is the queen of reflected glory,

and malicious trickery.

She is the queen of surrender and serenity,

and unguarded secrets.

She is the giver of secret friends, and secret enemies.

Yes, worship her, but take care!
