Raven MoonA Poem by Sarah Marie
In the blackest sky this lonely light
Travels the world over the cover of night; Its blanket the mist that follows its shine, It acts as a lost wanderer's single sign. The twinkling stars its only friends, It is the keeper of the souls of men Who pray to its grace and beautiful silver Whether full or gibbous or crescent or sliver. It is the creation the raven seeks, Its hate in its breast and bite in its beak; As black as midnight, it detests the moon, For it will not be noticed again until noon Because of the moon's demand to be noticed Despite the fact the sun may be missed. The raven wishes it could be as known, Both so different yet both all alone. The raven waits until the new hour To question the moon about its power Which makes all stand in bliss and awe And ignore the raven's desperate caw For a friend or raven love to find Underneath the moon's white shine; The moon answer, "Just be kind For the result is love, and their love is mine." The cruel raven sighs in defeaet, Realizing fate was what caused them to meet; It offers the moon a kiss good night And promises to be good by next daylight. © 2012 Sarah Marie |
