Blood Red Moon

In moonlight, where all lovers kiss Beware the spell that charms a fool For crimson red will vex the eyes A capricious stain will startle eyes A trick to tempt crossed lover's kiss Bewitching every star-struck fool If you choose to be the fool Beguiled by moon, who winks an eye Be wary of the moonlight kiss A kiss will fool a blind man's eye, when stars conspire with the moon

Dear Carrie, Always written like a pro! There is a line from "Romeo and Juliet" where Juliet tells Romeo not to compare their love to the "inconstant moon." Romance 'neath the moon does not always remain when "stars conspire with the moon." Excellent work! Congratulations, Carolyn
