~ My Orange Moon

 

 

Thou shone so bright,

The night of full moons, in me;

Shall I ever be upon these clouds

To follow thee?

 

Shall I be there, when it’s that day?

Where could we mourn better,

Than with our hands folded,

On these unexpected stairway’s?

 

And where could I be taken?

For the days, are more beautiful

When surrounded in grey’s,

Let me absorb you in my vast body…

 

To observe thee, in the most occult nights,

I embrace thee with my invisible sight

Thou shall not pass, the forlorn darkness

Before I was there, I knew your light--

 

It was so fast, and high,

I could reach out the scale of pain,

Just to reach your top, up there--

Let me dwell in the glance of thee, fain

 

From a distant relieve, I shall salute,

The longer passages of time so brute,

Now wait me, for time is blank in so many forms;

And color me, through these heavy chained storms

For all the Full Moon moments, to come, return and surround us~ Enjoy xx

I often feel that your poetry should be declaimed from a high podium with all the relevant gestures by an exceptional actor with a voice like burnt whisky in period costume. This is no exception. A remarkable write full of rich layers and fruity phrases.

Sigh... thank you Ken, dearest friend, for your support always, it means so much to me. When I'm totally better, i will bite into your work :D can't wait...

This transported me through my memories, until I came upon December 22, 2010; the date of the lunar eclipse on the Winter Solstice. You have captured here, in resplendent detail, my exact euphoric emotions from witnessing that momentous celestial event on that night. Very well written, my friend. -slow clap-

Thank you so much... do you remember the summer of 1998? :) if I'm right? I was living in Naples, (Italy) in that time, and had faced the eclipse too :D so great I could give you back some memories.... many thanks for the nice review, and I promise, I will be back for your work of art, after my weekend. Thanks again, slow-motion-wave :D

[Lover Of Words]

This is simply beautiful... just stunning.... wow you left me speechless

Thank you Kelsey :) I'm happy you liked this one...

[Lover Of Words]

Thank you for being this stunning writer that you are... Leave me speechless most of the time... You are just stunning!

Sigh, and blush *over red face here* lol thank you dear x :)

[Lover Of Words]

You should seriously think about publishing a book... you would blow everyones minds on how beautiful your words are

I don't write for money, I think... I have thought about it, of course, but I think I just love to share, my experiences, feelings, and such.... :)

[Lover Of Words]

Well you have found a life long fan in me my dear... your words are just as beautiful as you are :)

Aw, thank you again Kelsey. *heartsmiles* I will be back to read your artworks.

[Lover Of Words]

Thank your time sweetie they dont disappear :)

The vivid orange moon shining above, inspires you to work magic with your words, Elisa. You write enchanting poetry which reverberates in my mind's ears and in my heart.

Thank you so much my friend, I'm so glad you liked this one. I try to be back as soon as I can for you and the others, when I'm off the road... :D

[Lydia Shutter]

Mystical and magical words from you in this one, Elisa. The "orange" color reminds me, of course, of Holland, but this is not about our country. The celestial tone mixed with the occult gave your words an almost eerie feel. Of course, you chose the perfect music to accompany your words once again. Through storms of night, the moon guides us. May it always guide you to pleasant places where you feel safe. Beautifully written with so much hidden between the lines. Knuffels, Lydi**

Thank you for this most beautiful review Lydi knuffel xx

I felt like i enter a vivid dreams-cape where watch the moon in a good mood, shining the orange light of positivism... I love this...

Thank you so much little bro... :)

Shall I ever be upon these clouds
To follow thee? beautiful line! Your words are full of such beautiful imagery. Great poem.

Thank you so much, my friend, for your time, and review. Very appreciated :)

[Girl Friday (Sarah W.)]

You write in the landscape of dreams... I see entire worlds within your words, and you write with such an emotional hand. Your writing is not always completely technical, but it is absolutely fantastically beautiful, sublime, and truly amazing in so many ways. I really feel as though i am seeing YOU in your work, and this piece really shows me this. You are a creature from another century, another planet, perhaps. Beautiful!

Thank you so much my dear friend, I'm honored always to have you by... and I promise when I'm better I will go through all your new ones, can't wait actually, feel so bored... Muwah! for being there always, and for your kind heart...

[J. J. Nightingale]

There is a saying about the moon Eli..., "Red in the night sailors delight, red in the morning, sailors take warning."
You give the delight in the colorful night here Eli. A weary traveler in the sea of humanity finds hope in the signs you write in these poetic heavens...

Thank you so much David, for touching my sailors heart on the right spot.. :) you always do! plus this was the piece, I wanted to let you know about, referring to your write, but I couldn't find that write anymore on your catalogue, and I forgot the name...(so bad with names)... I hope you remember which piece I meant... :) many thanks dear friend

[David Scott]

I remember well.
I'm glad I found the poem. It was a pleasure to read.

I'm glad... :) pass me the write some day if you want!

[icelandicblue]

This is filled with gorgeous imagery from start to finish.

Before I was there, I knew your light--

That is one of the most beautiful lines I have ever read. There is comfort in the color and light when the world is all gray. Another wonderful jewel from you.

Thank you so so much Anne :) I'm so happy with your continued support and lovely heart. You have no idea, I've read you in the meantime, and I only want to say stay strong my friend, I will come over to review, when having more energy... But you are in my thoughts xx
