~ Luna

Nocturnal delight intoxicated

By dark desires, of shape

Deeper feelings mirrored

Rugged against his skin

She came slowly closer

And made herself so thin

 

Now his face was illuminated

With her sleek pale shape

His eyes so hypnotized

In trance by watching her

In slow motion while she danced

A little around her axis

Her smile became so huge

When she stood in front of him

Her eyes he could imagine

As when her face would glow

He had to wait just a bit longer

Before she would let him show

 

Slightly she passed him by,

Just lost her for another night

He was just so alone and petrified

And couldn’t move along

With his arms he tried to reach her

For she by day just would be gone

I found myself most intrigued by that entire last stanza, I reread it a few times, savoring it, trying to figure out where it could lead me. I feel the loss, but also, perhaps the promise of a return, somewhere, sometime... So many interpretations we can give, I love how you don't give all the answers... Your words can live on beyond the conclusion. Bravo. Extra info: I named my cat Luna! ;)

Thank you sithlordjp :) I always enjoy your reviews. And so good you named her Luna, the best name for an animal that connected to her.... :) I feel honored to have you by.

[sithlordjp]

It's a pleasure to discover your work.

I feel honored.... :-)

Strange it is you may find but this mystic sight is male for me and not female that is why I never call it Luna, only Moon. Anyway whatever, you were able to paint wonderful words as an ode to this powerful yet sweet luminous of the dark night. I enjoyed him still in a female form. :)

Linguistically, the moon is feminine, I find it interesting you are thinking otherwise herein. :) thank you dear, for your unique thoughts :)

[Belle]

Yes, even in myth ( particularly from the Native American myth) Luna is feminine.
I just find it that way especially if the Moon keeps on hovering over me. :)

I understand that.... :) it could be your sister.... :) spirit

[Belle]

Hm. might be. I haven't thought of it before.
That can be an interesting idea too to entertain, and might change my perspective over Moon. You are such an influence Dear.

It could be also the male as all is connected into the universe, it is interesting.... you're too love... you always make me think and I love that about you xxx till very soon, I will be back for you, and hope all is well at your place sister x

[Belle]

Okay Dear Eli ( love too). Take Care!

nice work Elisa...the Moon is an enormous source of inspiration, the immensity of her power to hypnotize one into intimacy, sensuality, love, and romance, is a gift to us...she can literally hold one within the enchantment of her being...your poem expresses ALL of these qualities...

Thank you very much, dear friend, nice you saw all I intend, I will be back soon for you, :)

This was such an awesome poem that you have written! Firstly, when I read the title of your poem I though, 'WOW' I couldn't wait to read it. Then when I started to read the poem, I didnt want it to end! Haha. It was great! The imagery was outstanding! I am a huge fan of the moon, I have been for some bizzarre reason, since I was a kid I would sit on the sofa and look at the moon for hours! Haa.
Wonderful xox

The Moon is so special dear, and I did the same lol... until now... I always watch the moon, it has something so magical.... :-) xx Thank you for your lovely words, I will tonight, come back for yours

Thank you kindly :-)

[Inda]

Oh, this is amazing and the end, when she's beyond his touch is just amazing. You paint a great picture and it just hits me hard i guess. Love this one!

Thank you sweet Inda, this was a screenplay I wrote when I was on my time off in Andalucia- Spain... I sat on a bench, and watched "La Luna, turning around some high mountain...." I felt the lalalala love... I guess ;)

[Inda]

Awesome!

The silver light of the moon illuminates the night as a pearl with the most lustrous sheen, and all of creation dances as the Goddess of the night waves her hand and bathes the dark with moonbeams. The forest hears the sounds of the creatures who come alive for her; the jungle beasts growl as they prowl under the full night of her; two lovers combine midst her sultry teasing phases. And the most powerful of all waits for an eclipse when they shall be under her full command - their most high Luna!
You have stirred the moonlight in me! I shudder lest it be the crescent moon.....may the full moon prevail!
Exquisite........I cover my eyes in awe of her!

Thank you so much Sheila love, for sending your exquisite thoughts as ever on my writes, truly appreciated dear to have you around! xxxx

[David Scott]

The natural workings of the universe are seductive to the soul that realizes their creation comes from the same source... We are mirrors reflecting the wavelengths of lifeband love. Look into the lens of the microscopic world and you will see the same playful seduction of life that is found peering deep into the boundless universe. Love is not only found by expanding ever outward, but also by knowing the endless expanses within...
Oh dear EL, you poem has inspired my thoughts as you turn my gaze to observe her smiling crescent. ;-)
"and * made * herself so thin"

Haha, lovely review, David, like my hubby you have the same microscopic insights... (job related) somehow... wonderful to read this. - Elisa
