The Sunday Muse |
Tonight, there's a
beautiful full moon
starlight dances in the windless night
my soul recalls, sweet beguiling tunes
longing to abandon this safe cocoon
glistening snow, golden beams of light
tonight there's a beautiful full moon
you ghosted me, my heart marooned
this song of ours, we need to re-write
my soul recalls, sweet beguiling tunes
dreaming of you, morning arrives soon
lyrical poems, words of love, shall I recite
tonight there's a beautiful full moon
entranced darkness, luminous swoon
illusions of yesterday, tomorrow's delight
my soul recalls, sweet beguiling tunes
serenading my beloved, I'm a blue loon
passion and fire, distant stars ignite
tonight there's a beautiful full moon
my soul recalls, sweet beguiling tunes
linking with The Sunday Muse
Thank-you for visiting
author's note: It snowed here this
week, the night air crisp and cold
the beautiful full moon warmed the night
A most exquisite pantoum ... a most difficult form. Brava!
ReplyDeleteThanks Helen! This one I was feeling today. I do like pantoums but, this time I tried a villanelle. Both use repetition and can be difficult.
DeleteDamn, you do these amazing pantoums. So great!
ReplyDeleteThank gbit, I used the Villanelle for this one. Similar to a pantoum with repetition.
DeleteA wolf moon, at that...extra special. I love the poem, especially "I'm a blue loon."
ReplyDeleteHa - I have to love a "wolf moon".
DeleteStunning form and beautiful thoughts. Love this Truedessa!
ReplyDeleteThank you Carrie
DeleteThe full moon sure brought forth a wonderful tune. Blah to the snow though lol
ReplyDeleteThanks Pat! I am sure you have enough snow your way. Are you getting the frigid temperatures?
DeleteNope. All nice and warm here now.
DeleteA very haunting rhythm.
ReplyDeleteHi Alex, that it is and rhythm holds it together.
DeleteGorgeous! That last stanza was amazing!
ReplyDeleteThank you for hosting, a lovely photo to spark some words.
DeleteExcellent form! Love that ending line
ReplyDeleteThank you Z...
DeleteVillanelle and pantoum ... put the words together and you have pantaloons. Whichever, I admire your skill!
ReplyDeleteHaha Thanks Bev I am just happy people enjoyed the poem no matter the form. Have a wonderful day!
DeleteI like this, it's a marvelous counterpoint to most of our poems for this prompt!
