![]() One Starless NightA Poem by Chris Shaw![]() (a second poem posted on moon moods)![]()
chariots of heavy cloud,
gun metal greys outnumber madam moon as she illuminates the witching hours hurtling past at speed, a stampede no less of fast moving madness casting shadows on her fine skin diva is bemused by the race taking place before her eyes, gives out a sigh, says it's time this usurping stopped within minutes the wind had dropped, intermittent spaces appeared, all activity quietly disappeared lunar beauty recovered, no blemishes or swirling mass to impair her shimmering face as she shines bright queen of light is she, left alone surrounded by her halo, on an invisible throne, full ownership of the heavens restored
