Red Moon Rising

Our sky is filled with beauty,
                                           
as far as the eye can see.
                                                 
Each night the dancing stars put on a light show,
             
it is free if we will only look up.
                                       
From time to time,
                                                         
a fiery comet will zoom overhead.
                                   
Most of all I love the full moons,
                                     
they come in pretty colors.
                                                 
The big and bright white moon,
                                       
shows it's face to us monthly.
                                           
I love when the moon blushes,
                                           
a beautiful pink it will turn.
                                               
The fall brings the harvest moon,
                                       
showing off it's golden side.
                                               
The Red Moon Rising,
                                         
is filled with a blood red face.
                                             
A velvet sky filled with dancing stars,
                                 
a perfect backdrop for a Red Moon Rising.

A very beautiful and colorful creation my good friend. Yes, such sights are always quite awesome to behold. I find the full golden moon to be a truly romantic illumination. I proposed to my first wife under such. God bless.

I once stayed up all night just to witness a red moon rising over the Karoo (a semi-desert region in South Africa) - awe inspiring. Like you say: we only need to look up. Nice pen, Paula.

Yes the moon is beautiful and filled with wonder and romance. I love watching the night sky here in the great Northwest. The Northern Lights are a wonder to behold and are at their brightest in October and November. Well done my friend. God Bless, JB
