Moonlight

Moonlight

A Poem by Raylene
"

I have not written poetry in a long time but thought I should give it a go

"

The 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.

I haven't taken out much time to bask in that moonlight beauty,..but I'll try to change that. Maybe after minutes I will get to understand the inspiration for a piece so nice.
