Notes About The Poem

Solace

Like the moon pours its light
Over a forest, in silence
Echoing the music of solace
Graceful like the sigh, inspiration
Healing darkness, nocturnal
Blessings venturing beyond the moon
Stars in glimpses of hopeful shimmering
Promising to make wishes come true with their laughter,
Blessing the heart, the soul – with 
Knowing that even the densest undergrowth
Feels the melody as the moon
Casts its shaft, elegant, supple – flowing
Over the night, beckoning paradise, stirring the soul to life
As it parts the oaks, the pines, singing
Through the limbs, gentling lyrics
Opening hearts, in the clearing –
Where moonlight restores the joy
Burning through those who know, alone
Isn’t always lonely. Sometimes,
Alone is like a touch from the most holy
