Goddess Luna -Constanza-

Moon goddess in nocturnal flight, When Luna’s rise at midnight breaks One’s deepest breath of awe she takes. Her wings are formed by silky light. Silver shards beam through drifting clouds, Curtains of light in misty shrouds; Her hair billows radiant bright. Her face a luminescent glow, Captive of heaven’s indigo. She whispers secrets to the night, Twinkling stars light years away keep Peaceful solitude in our sleep. In dream state she relates her might. Luna keeps vigil over night; Genders poets compelled to write. Emotions bared with-in her light; Her mood through pen is oft’ displayed In violence or love allayed. A lovely view, her awesome sight. Beauty remains beyond compare, The gift of love she deigns to share. Moon goddess in nocturnal flight, Her wings are formed by silky light. Her hair billows radiant bright. She whispers secrets to the night, In dream state she relates her might. Emotions bared with-in her light; A lovely view, her awesome sight. December 18, 2013

I caught the cold/flu and have been knocked off my feet for over two weeks. I owe so many comments and I am trying to play catch up. Thank you for your comment Joseph.

Well, I certainly had to come have a look and was pleased to see it written about the moon. Another point for the night sky team and oh so well done. Surely top spot for you.

Stunning piece! I really like your form. I agree with Craig, this should be recognized as a new form. I wrote my first one and enjoyed writing it. Merry Christmas.

Interesting that we both wrote Constanza with the moon in prominence. This is lovely, and you definitely imbued it with the ethereal essence it deserves. I especially think the secondary poem is terrific. It bears up so well though standing alone.
