    The Moon Dance | Poetry

    May 7, 2012

    dance of the moon

    I don’t know if it was all the ‘Supermoon’ hype, or my sexy muse at work, but I know I felt something at 1:40 a.m. the other morning- and then dreamed the rest of it later.



    The Moon Dance

    The moon, tho’ not full
    Cut the night left and right
    Like a surgeon’s sharp tool
    Blackest black and dreamy white

    I stood in the dark
    Stuck my arm in the glow
    And felt your yearning hark
    Your lips on my arm I did know

    Taking half a chance
    Standing part in, part out
    I offered you a dance
    “Yes!”, your reply nearly a shout

    My steps split the night
    I was afraid to commit
    As you played in the moonlight
    Not crossing the ethereal split

    Then a sudden twirl
    Found me full in
    Phoebes ghostly dream swirl
    You looked at me with a loving grin

    We pitched and spun
    Made love in her beams
    We danced again before we were done
    Nothing like it in any dreams

    Then she fell low
    And sadness took your face
    You kissed me, said you had to go
    Too fast you went, I couldn’t chase

    Tonight, clouds rule the sky
    My heart- heavy with rain
    A single tear rolls from my eye
    As I look to dance with you again
