Ode to a Blue Moon

by Margaret Williams (Sag) - Not entered

To the Goddess moon shining in the night,
bathing lovers with her pale glowing light,
upon the earth the poets often wonder why
her beauty doesn't make the angels cry.

The spell you have cast upon the changing seas
with the oceans and tides obeying you with ease
has made mankind search in vain for the key
to your endless cycle of perfect majesty.

Ebony night with the twinkle of stars all around
cannot compare with the magic that is found
when lovers gaze at the Lady with the ivory crown
and their longing sighs are the only sound.

Reason for writing:

    To honor the Blue Moon that is shining in the night.
