A Full Moon Arising

Pulling at your deepest darkest emotions

As I lay here listening to my music

I’m thinking about my day today,

Nothing special, some ups and downs

But nothing important to convey.

***

I’m just biding my time waiting

Until I can meet up with you soon,

Looking forward to this weekend

To watch the rise of the full moon.

***

Our mode of transport will be a ferry

Across the wild seas in the open bay,

A tiny deserted island to ourselves

For a glorious week, returning Friday.

***

Our accommodation is a lighthouse

Which is no longer in commission,

Each level holds so much history

The structure in pristine condition.

***

Oh what a magical sight at the top

A stunning full moon slowly rising,

The entire view takes my breath away

Both calming and totally tantalising.

***

If you can pull your gaze from the moon

You’ll notice the foggy mist hiding the ocean,

Like smoke drifting out over the water

Pulling at all your deepest darkest emotion.

About the Creator

Colleen Millsteed

My first love is poetry — it’s like a desperate need to write, to free up space in my mind, to escape the constant noise in my head. Most of the time the poems write themselves — I’m just the conduit holding the metaphorical pen.
