Moonlit Illusion

Near a cliff a young woman walks
Eyes like blue saucers
A Svelte figure
We see her in the 
glassy moonlight
The light dances on her hair
Creating a"moonlight shadow"
Under lunar light
so many things can happen
Moonlight is liquid love
In the distance 
A wolf howls
Searching for his mate

Matthew this is a very lovely write from start to finish.. wonderful imagery takes the reader there walking along side the young woman, the wolf is far enough away as not to worry. Unless, his mate is nearby. I've notice to minute typo's "glasy" should perhaps be "glassy or glossy" and "thiongs" should perhaps read as 'things" It is still a very lovely write and I've enjoyed the read my friend. Thank you for sharing the write and for your welcome comments. Many Blessings, always, Adell
