just moments before
the full moon bursts forth
from behind storm clouds in the night,
the dark is the deepest
pit of despair,
that crushes you with its might.
then silver waves bathe you
in rays so intense
your spirit with heaven unites,
giving you strength
to from this deluge,
to rise and to alight.
the full moon bursts forth
from behind storm clouds in the night,

your spirit with heaven unites,
giving you strength
to from this deluge,
to rise and to alight.
every friday, compose a short story of 55 words - no more, no less. if you want to join in the fun and games and give it a try...post your story and report to the boss G-Man
You reconnect with heaven inside the heart. A glimpse of the moon reminds you soul is part werewolf. To be part of everything is timeless.
ReplyDeleteAhhh, rescued from the depths of Darkness!!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful 55 Shadow Dancing.
Sometimes you take my breath away!
This is one of those times.....
I love it when the moon 'bursts' out from behind the clouds. Awesome picture and lovely 55 to match! Happy Friday Shadow!

Just Beautiful... dear shadow.
It is not the moon that makes the heart alight, but rather the heart that gives the moon its glory and light.

ReplyDeleteOh, that enchanting moon rising over the waves of despair...
ReplyDeleteNice work!
Mine's up too. You know that cuz you came by for a bright taste of dandelions. Thank you!
I really do like your poetry. But I always yearn for some simple stuff about your life. You know. I would really like to hear you just talk about your day. Or a point of view on current events. Stuff like that.
ReplyDelete"Always darkest before the dawn" or something like that. You remind us in this poem that rather than sinking into despair we can remember during the hardest times that there will better times.
ReplyDeleteThe moon has been behind clouds for a couple of days but I saw its silvery light early this morning.
ReplyDeletewishing you w great weekend, with lots of smiles, laughter, and silver light shinning down on you, full of majic, bathing you in peace and serenity. GREAT 55.. HUGS
