Red Moon Rising A beat of my heart skips When I hear of the event lunar eclipse Blood moon illuminating Earth’s umbras Dust and darkness overwhelming auras Yellow and orange glows hindrance in its surface Blood moon rising show us the angel’s purpose. How Gods anger shall reign upon arrival of The spiritual war that shall come from above. Death and Hades followed by the Source, An omen with tales of riding a pale horse. Ashes blind first with an advent purple haze. Drunk on a crimson moon in the end of days. A beat of my heart skips When I hear of the event lunar eclipse

Going over some of my favorites today Anaya. I remember this poem with its apocalyptic overtones. So close to me heart. Relief is coming

Joel 2:31- The sun shall be turned into darkness and the moon into blood, before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD. Matthew 24:29- Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heaven will be shaken. Joel 3:15- The sun and the moon are darkened and the stars withdraw their shining.

There is something about the eclipse and the blood moons that has something to do with the approaching of the end of days but I am not sure exactly when all of this is going to happen but I know that we are headed in the direction of the end. Congratulations on your winnning work. Way to go. Thanks for sharing it with us and for dropping by my page. Sara

Belated Ty, Sara. Reminiscing on 2023 and yes Revelations was the theme I'd chosen as the red moon suggests Revelations. You are welcome!

Wonderful poem, Anaya. Good luck in the contest. I am so glad you got your book. Yes, it is my art work. All my books cover are paintings I have painted. I should have had the first cover glossy as well it would have looked nicer; now I know.
