Moon Light Experience

l wait in awe for my Moon Light Garden to wake up
when tendrils of Snowdrops gather
of promises of Springtimes welcome cup
and then l'll sit and wait
as dusk flaunts it's
seductive dance
in my Moonlight Garden
dressed in joys of pearls.

It's beauty l wait in slumber
to waken white daffodils
that will whisper that the fragrant night is near
and the Moonflower, pholx and white lilac tree
send showers of drops on the breeze, to intoxicate me

Sweet Rocket, white Foxgloves  all smile from glowing faces
and call 'come' now'  take my hand , as Moonlight chases
the weary dreams of grey rain days
and gives me pictures in romantic eyes
as the twilight breeze calls
of it potent scents , of my white garden
like the beauty
of the Taj Mahal

Your words, imagery and spirit dance across the page beautifully here Jacqueline. I love how the last line transports the reader from your garden to India. It stopped me in my tracks and made me want to re-read. Cheers - Gary

That's really kind of you Gary. I'm waiting for my moonlight garden to wake up. i'v not many white flowers yet that bloom in winter, but can see my 'white beauty' clematis and snowdrops all in bud, then my scented white daffodils and white hyacinths next. I'm just ordering more plants to day. Can u tell i'm a gardener lol. J

I am sure the Taj Mahal would be splendid in the moonlight on a clear, warm night. I loved the imagery.
