The taste of your lips lingers, Mixing with the liquor, Misguided decisions, Hidden moments, Hang in the air between us, I lie down next to you, Wanting to kiss you, But finding myself too scared to make another move.

Secret moments.
In her gauzy garments Above the bowing trees The moon has many lovers In the sighing breeze. They all take her dancing In exotic lands They give her sparkling diamonds They kiss her milk-white hands. She is round & fullsome Or slender as a waif When she is then waning Her flowers are kept safe. Silken skeins of darkness When she's waxing full Are parted by her brightness She is NEVER dull! Her beaux are all so courtly But she eschews them all Her only love can make her pale She burns at his call... She lets out her moonbeams Through her eyes they weep She loves the one eclipsing her They can NEVER meet! She, so strong within her court Will curtsey when he comes The moon has many lovers But she's taken by the SUN. Catherine Jarvis (C) 12/14/2019

The Moon Has Many Lovers
Beyond the veils of normalcy there's a hint of the extraordinaire the fruit of magnificence within the Spinning hole of the vortex lies the base for restoration. You Close your eyes to see the true nature of life's realities I felt the presence of the ones before me The divine beings basking in the glory emanating from all My heart drew them near Their words I hold dear This Safe space I cherish till eternity.
