Exceptional

Fittingly, tonight there will be a total eclipse of the Harvest moon
and so I have called upon Selene's countenance to inspire this
poem:

In southern climes
the harvest moon
will blush
in the tangerine shadow of
Mother Earth's
passing penumbra

But Lune's complexion
can't compare
to the tangelo hue
I am wearing -

the guilty tinge
of chagrin
that has bloomed

spreading like wildfire
o'er freckled tanned cheeks

To think that I missed
this Sweet Lorraine
impression

those restless sheep leaping
o'er goose feather visions. . .

Immortalized
in dream's conjurings;
memorialize
in penned renderings.



(I'm so sorry I've been less than diligent -
I definitely deserve to be chastised!)

*mwah*

Yes.... a wonderfully moving poem, (and I don't mean the illustration at the top ;p ) Michael. I like the spirit of your words, bringing to mind gifts and snow and lovely dreams. I enjoyed reading it so much, I read it three times. Each reading brings fresh ideas about what you may have been thinking while writing, but I admit, most of the time, I can only guess.

Another fascinating animation to adorn your words! I enjoyed your creative love poem and random rhymes. Your reference to "Texas" and the "midnight cowboy's watch" is very effective. Cheers- Joan--I'm back...
