The Moon Is a Mirror

When the moon is full it is my mirror
I wantonly look for your reflection
Clouded thoughts pass by, you become nearer
Stars enhancing your welcomed reception
Intent on gaining deeper perception
Envisioning you looking back at me
The moon brightens to avoid deception
Mentally traveling so cheerfully
Arriving to a place so peacefully
Serenaded by the soothing night sounds
I catch a soft kiss you throw lovingly
No sweeter kisses can ever be found
When the moon is full it is my mirror
My destiny has never been clearer

Thank you, Tamara. I appreciate the flowers:) The reason is because the sun is not as romantic as the moon. I can't recall the moon putting off oppressive heat except for when someone is in my arms. LOL

Thank you, BW. I appreciate the kindness and the 7. I also have another example where I tried again. "Thank You Vincent Van Gogh". You can use it for a reference also. Good luck and have fun. Peace my dear:)
