I Found You In the Moonlight

I found you in the moonlight long ago Blue sapphire eyes that served as Cupid's dart Intoxicated by your fine Bordeaux The only sparkle I saw was your heart I've held you in my arms so many times Imagining it's where you wished to be Then colors blend and bleed over my lines While tenderly you pour your love on me But then with sunrise I must let you go I see your beauty in the morning sky Those perfect nights we've shared you'll never know The love I steal, the moon's my alibi Sometimes the moon will blush and try to hide Your love reflects as stardust on the tides by Daniel Turner

How I've missed your delicious poetry. You had me at 'Intoxicated by your fine Bordeaux', the moon hardly needs an alibi midst your distinctive thoughts. Simply stunning Danny.

This poem is so pretty Daniel, really touched my heart (which I've been told I don't have!). I shared it with Phillip, along with Nicola's. :) Diane
