Notes About The Poem

   

Full Moon Ritual

pageantry of stars welcomes full moon arising, congos pulse in bounced rhythm for one midnight rush garlands offered for wishes… arms catching heavenly flare primal dances swerve unleashing instinct’s desire, toes swivel on burst of eve for whirlwind frolic… Moon Lady beams through tree - lights her radiance spilling charms ‘’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’ *The full moon rises this July 19 symbolizing aspirations for abundance, joy, good luck. Most cultures honor this day with rituals of dance, music, offerings. syllables checked at www.howmanysyllables.com ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Entered in Compose A Choka Contest 7/21/2016 ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Resubmitted for Broken Wings I Got Zero, Nothing, Nada- 2 Challenge 8/3/2016
