Haunted Orb

Luna's specter glows
   Gazing at her reflection
In the black night sea







Inspired by Raul's "Reflections" contest

    A beautiful and vivid picture you paint with your words here Donna. My mind's eye could plainly see the moon's reflection in the dark sea. God bless Donna, Sincerely, Love, Moses

    Awesome visual! The image popped right in my head after reading this. It would have to be a full moon, or a half moon could reflect the other half making it whole:) New moon's are just annoying, all style and no substance, and honestly I never thought Robert Pattinson was all that hot...dude's a bit skinny but I guess 13 year old girls go for the effeminate dreamy look nowadays...sorry I kind of drifted off topic:) Thanks for sharing Donna.
