Under the Moon

Above, a full moon dances with billowing clouds, and a rusty old gate creaks open for me, as I glide past ancient gnarled trees, reaching their tangled branches into the night. A winding road is beckoning me to come, and I glide past angel statues, weeping their sadness over the maze of tombs, and I drift ethereal under the full moon. I have no fear as this has been my home for, a hundred years . . . _____________________________ January 5, 2016 Poetry/Verse/Under The Moon Copyright Protected, ID 16-840-154-0 All Rights Reserved.

I am at loss for words. I think that words in my vocabulary aren't enough to convey what I feel on reading this beautiful work of yours. Thank you for giving me the privilege to read this. God Bless you :)
