Blaming The Moon. Poem by Fay Slimm

Blaming The Moon.

Rating: 5.0


Oh ominous moon - - pale portent of doom.
White luminous disk, suspended aloft
Thick blanket of black shot thru' with bright
Shiny catseyes of light, coating in soft
Unearthly glimmer this earthy-dark night,
Shine out your lovers' lantern-like gleaming
On harvested fields, waiting, like me- - - for
Moonstruck insanity, aided by dreaming,
Invaded my heart, broke down the door
To resistance, - - now ecstasy's hidden
In clandestine moments, - - oh wanton moon
Which with passion bewitches us - - bidden
By lunacy-love, he comes hurrying soon
To my arms yet again to set me aflame.
Oh moonbeaming night it is you I shall blame.! !

Ominous moon has mesmerized mind with extra-ordinary beauty. Unearthly glimmer we notice at deep night. Moon is hero of all creatures and moon sings the peace sing for all. We shall blame for moon-beaming at night with joy and reflection. This poem is outstanding poem...10

Fay, this is truly a wonderful write, images of love under the celestial moon, how romantic, makes me wish I was back courting...walking down those quiet country lanes. Not really though when I think of all the trouble that was to come. 10/10 Bob xx
