Moonlight and Proses

Storyteller weaves his tales throughout my mind and heart. He alchemies my leaden days into golden thoughts. We soar above the shrinking earth on word-filled wings at night, glide on intellectual planes; it’s Truth we seek to find. Charting unknown territory of heartlands, minds and brains, we plumb the depths of mysteries that rule cabbages and kings. Like Capote penning portraits, his stories glow so real. Their 3-D essence touches me in déjà vu surreal. He’s captured me in tidy yarns, with friendship for a knot. Allowing him to nurture me, he feeds my starving heart. He takes me here, he whisks me there, with legends of the fall. But one place I can never trod is deep inside his soul.

Cindy, your poem "Moonlight and Proses" is a beautiful and moving ode to the power of storytelling and the transformative power of friendship. Your words are both poetic and profound, and they capture the essence of what it means to be human. I especially love the line "He alchemies my leaden days / into golden thoughts." It's a perfect reminder that even the darkest of times can be transformed by the power of imagination and friendship. - Blessings, Daniel

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
