Adorned In Pink Organza

Searching the twilight horizon For signs she's on her way As I anticipate her rising Have felt like this all day The cloud begins to gather Betwixt the sea and sky I welcome her arrival She makes my spirit fly Just as I start to doubt That tonight she will come out A delicate glow A glow I know Rises from the sea Just like the Goddess Amphitrite Adorned in pink organza As if she wants to dance all night Resplendent in her glittering gown Her dazzling light is beaming down This ballerina of the sky I do not blink ~ I am wide eyed I'm moonstruck and I'm mesmerised To see such wonder with my eyes Her beauty seeps inside my soul I hear sweet music all around My head is spinning to the sound For now I'm in another place Moonbeams lighting up my face Gazing at this Super Moon I swoon ~ I may not be back soon… Written 8th May 2020 ~ after witnessing the hypnotic beauty of the Super Moon Contest Brian's Choice 6 Sponsor Brian Strand 2nd PLACE

Your personification is perfect! "Just like the Goddess Amphitrite Adorned in pink organza As if she wants to dance all night Resplendent in her glittering gown" Wow Ann. Wow!

Wasn't it fabulous Tom! I adore the moon, so as you can see once again I was inspired to write about her... Hope you are well Tom and keeping safe from the nasty virus. Take care. With kindest thoughts Ann xx
