La Luna

Not masculine like ruler Sun, who with intensity at noon, beats down on us - the fiery one! Soft-glowing is the Goddess Moon. She is La Luna – poets’ muse - whose beauty makes the lovers swoon. Strong light of day she does not choose. Soft-glowing is the Goddess Moon. Misty, silver, yellow-hued; with ocean tides she is in tune. With mystery she is imbued! Soft-glowing is the Goddess Moon. Sometimes part of her face she hides. Sun vanishes. We see her soon as through the starry skies she slides. Soft-glowing is the Goddess Moon. Aug. 7, 2021 For Chantelle Anne Cooke's Is The Moon Male Or Female Or Both Poetry Contest Aug. 18 for 'A BRIAN STRAND rime ' Contest??

Congratulations on your win. What a lovely story/write on La Luna. Love your line "Soft-glowing is the Goddess Moon." I love when the special moons have color, like red, pink and yellow. Have a day with your win...............

Wow Andrea! I absolutely love this tribute to the goddess Luna. I hope this wins a trophy. It is going straight into my faves! I’m not that fond of repeating lines as in the Kyrielle, but I have not seen this form written better! Bravo! Applause and standing ovation! Blessings xxoo

To be on a beach at night with the moon shining over the waves. Delightful.

Melodic, rational, comforting. Your Luna Lady depiction is lovely, Andrea! Glowing Goddess gives us beautiful rhythmic reassurance.
