Notes About The Poem

looking at the cold december full moon i wrote this 

Once Upon a Time Beautiful

Flowering night light 
voice of midnight chimes 

Opening a gateway 
into shadows dancing blindly
Candlelight of thoughts 
liquid silver shines a chalice 

Spilling blood from darkness creeps 
Your beam touching petals
 
Softly white encircles time held still 
the fullness of your glorious face
Enriching cold awakening 
breaths turning senses 
clear within a breathless whisper cuts 

A thousand dreams answered

When one vision complete 
touching the stars wink 
capturing before these eyes

Dazzling thirst howls
dressed in ivory satin cream attire

Kissing goodnight 
into the soul echoes bounce gently 
within a mountain's crumbling voice 
winds blowing Gale 
hang within the balance

As clouds swallow the lunar vision 
under a grey veil held captive 

You hide as rainfalls knock
on heaven's door sweet flower 
coldly winter graces the heart 
as it smiles freely 

Crashing tides clearly turn around 
kissing over and back salted sands 
upon the soles of your feets journey
