Mary in the Moonlight

For the Eclipse Acrostic Challenge

By John CoxPublished 2 years ago • 1 min read

Every heavenly body in the galaxy, every sparkling star

Carries within a tiny reflection

Lit by a vision of you,

In the moonlight on a cloudless night

Pausing, lips pursed in awe.

Some memories lodge themselves so deeply, they

Eclipse the impossible distance between then and now.
