Swallowed By the Moon

*Super Moon 3/20/19 I was swallowed by the moon Its brightness captured me It hadn’t come too soon Needing light to consume me And so it did, from a dark winter night My soul moved to and fro With its endless moon path in sight Glimmering all over the snow Nothing but a lift, pulled me above From the place where I stood Igniting my heart with love Like nothing else could Heidi Sands 3/21/19

Hello Heidi, Fine lines from a better time. 'pulled me above ~~ From the place where I stood' all this said without haste or regret in a winter night, swallowed by the moon. So wonderful to find this one on a weary weeknight. -Richard
