Drunken By the Moon

Drinking all your beauty
Crazed under your influence
Intoxicating moonshine

I believe the last 10 or so of my poems are astrologically inspired. I must be a moon-a-tic!

Thank you very much for your kind comments... So many of us use the moon for inspiration and I am so glad that we do. I love reading lunar poems, too :)
