MoonlightA Poem by RayleneI have not written poetry in a long time but thought I should give it a goThe night had come upon me. however did not want to come to the sandman's call. I could not make my self sleep. I was to transfixed by how the night brought us silence. I wondered how long it would last for me. I laid there in my warm bed with the television on to give me some noise for the night. I paid no attention to the words, I was more interested in the moonlight. I could not see it, yet I felt it calling me to come out and see the world asleep and for a while in harmony. I just listened to the quiet smiling that I was alone in the world. I heard crickets chirping and imagined how they felt jumping in the moonlight. I listened carefully hearing the trees swaying in the night air doing a secret dance. I then heard a chirp of a bird, I opened my eyes and saw streaks of orange in the night sky. I sighed knowing it was over for the sun alerted the world to its feet. I closed my eyes to get some sleep awaiting the next moonlight harmony. © 2016 Raylene |
