Ghost The Moon
Winter evening falling
on a crisp wisp of air.
Sunbeams painting windows
in a fading red glare.
Tendrils
of darkness soon
encroach upon the scene.
Silent moon shadows creep
through every in-between.
Crystal
starlight peeking
through ghostly naked trees.
Lightly frost is tripping
across the fallen leaves.
Light
a fire to warm us
and watch the sparks enflame,
as logs and smoke entwine
into an endless game,
of twist
and poof and curl
up the chimney like a flume,
and quietly unfurl up
on high to ghost the moon.
Moon Shadows
This evening saw the moon
smiling from her midnight coach
She wore a shadowed
halo
and a shining crystal broach.
Her evening gown was lovely
in its bluest black hues
The hem a cloud
of silver
lined with sunsets rouge.
She rode the evening starlight
with Orion as her guide
They hunted
Ursa Major
to take refuge at his side.
He lead them through the reaches
far out to Antares stream
And
with the Little Dipper
spilled into a starlit dream.
Moonlight, Candles & Magical
Trees
Was it candle light
or was it the moon
that blinded
me to your presence
as you entered the room
Either way
the soft glow both
warmed and soothed
my scattered
emotions
as you took my hand and
led me into the trees

Midnight Rhapsody
Who's that tapping at my window
messages in secret code
When I look
there's naught to find there
empty walk, deserted road
Yet when I turn to leave the window
again the tapping,
one-two-three
But all I see are soft moon shadows
peeping o'er the sill at me
Could it be I hear the starlight
as
it falls upon the glass
Lightly tripping 'cross the window
keeping time when breezes pass
Or perhaps the
moonbeams shadow
skipping through the leaves alight
To do-se-do when starlight twinkles
sending shivers through the
night
Softly rhythmic windsongs echo
crickets sing and tree frogs thrommmm
Moonbeams tapping on my window
a
Midnight Rhapsodelic song
Sweet Dreams
I followed a trail of jelly beans
it led I know not where
for I found myself
adrift in a sea
where moonbeams formed a stair
A starlit carpet draped each step
a comet was the rail
and
I danced on up the twinkling flight
when I grasped the comets tail
Away I flew to the Milky Way
on a bed of Marshmallow
Dream
full of Hersheys Huggs & Kisses
M&M's and Jellybelly Beans
I tripped the lights fantastic
tiptoeing
through the stars
'til I came to rest in a lovers nest
spilling over with Midnight Mars
I snuggled down into
the nest
with crystal grains of sugar
all twinkling through the chocolate night
and devoured my Kingsize Snickers
