ECLIPSED MOONSHINE

There is silence in the sky as the dark shadows capture the silver moonshine

As the dark hands of the lurid earth, overpowers the tender glow of the full moon

                                              

Darkness fills the sky and clouds moan; as they watch the moon's futile struggle

In this unholy union of moonshine and shadow; an eclipse is born!

As the night passes, the contented earth is moved by pity and regret 

Overcome by  shame, he moves away abashedly; leaving but  a dark sighing moon!

As the reborn moon creeps from the dark clutches of the earth’s shadow

She smiles in relief and joy, and the sky brightens to her moonshine!

Far below , the oceans rise and rejoice as they greet the moon’s return

Lovers hold their hands in union, and the little birds chirp. as they fly towards the radiant sky 

The lonely tree, glows in the luminescent moonshine 

Oh ! How beautiful!

How beautiful is this moonshine !
