Ode to The Moon
From ordinary to extraordinary in due time
You give me a good reason to pause
Opalesque light feature
All hailed by the night creature
Illuminating my fine points and flaws
Internal
Nocturnal
Secrets kept in my journal
A wordsmith lacking a round of applause
You give me a good reason to gaze
Precious night diamond
Set on a sky island
I set sail to explore each lunar phase
New, First, Full, and Last
Future, present, to distant past
Cycles, circles, my everlast
Dancing in dreams, under stars, and your rays
You give me a good reason to reflect
Mistakes and convictions
Retakes and addictions
With your light source, I aim to project
No more round-rewound
On the Merry go round
I step off the self-driven ride of the inept
You give me a good reason to shine
A nightly occurrence
Meeting many an inference
I mold ordinary into extraordinary per the sign
Folklore, traditions
Magical superstitions
I tweak new renditions
With my pen in my hand, I wave words into worlds that are mine
