My love affair with the moon.

Image via Wikipedia

I lay in grassy fields
Gazing up at the sky
The moon shining down
Looking deep into my eyes

His chiseled face stoic
Carved by centuries of time
Evermore beautiful
Ageless and sublime

His sweet moonbeam
Surrounding me in an embrace
Teasing my senses
Overwhelming me with grace

He holds me captive
Within his ray of moonlight
Cradling me close
As I slumber in delight

Dreaming of that one day
When our love will perfectly portray

    This is a wonderful conversation with woman and moon. Although He the moon has not said a word volumes are spoken. Very enjoyable

    sunshine, when I read the title I thought you had forsaken me.. but no… it was yet another wonderful poem

    I too have a love affair with the moon. I often lay awake at night with the curtains open admiring it. You have expressed your love of it so vividly. Well done.

    Sunshine don’t take this the wrong way, The poem is good, but I love the title.. ” I Lay With The Moon.” It’s one of those titles you would never forget. I know it suppose to roll the poem.. but It stands tall all by itself. :) Frank

    How wonderful to be able to lavish one’s love so completely. How many, I wonder, would exchange places with the moon?

    Awww Lady Sunshine, your magical pen is perfect held in your hand, gently touching so many lives all across the land. The ink that pours into such heartfelt words, your great words of poetry will be forever heard. I really liked this poem being a moon child as I thank you for being its creator…

    Wow that was an amazing poem! The moon is so caring as you describe and portray it and this is exactly how I would perceive it if it did have human feelings and could express emotion.

  • Shirley Shuler on Jan 29, 2010

    Where I live, I do not see the moon too often (foggy here) But I do love the moon especially the full moon. Engaging poem.
