Moonbeams Love Song
Moonbeam's Love Song
Moonlight waifs into the shrouded garden
shimmering on the still, quiet pond
A bench built near the lily pad offerings
a restful place for love’s spirits to bond
A white dress glows among the shadows
soft now against the graying light
as greens dissipate as if in mourning
escaping from the specters of the night
Back set against the softening tree’s bark
arrested in the melody of moonbeams song
drifting away to another time and place
where love’s inner essence is never alone
