This Night Under Pale And Pallid New Moon In sad moonlight I mourn for thy soft hand for your loss, is more than I can withstand you were my all, orchard's sweet fruited bough alone in hollow realm, this heart weeps now. This night under pale and pallid new moon waiting in your favorite month of June each gust of your gentle breeze a godsend upon this eager face, hope never ends. Come swiftly my love, eternity calls from its golden depths, its most loving halls I hear your sweet voice and beg your dear touch no other treasure bequeaths me so much as does this fleeting hour you and I meet with prayer, I again fall at your feet.

Robert, this is powerful and deep and timeless. I especially liked "Come swiftly my love, eternity calls / from its golden depths, its most loving halls", as well as the reminder that "hope never ends." Thank you for sharing ~ John

The lovely moon always attracts thought of love and romance and sometimes loneliness with thought of loss of a loved one. You have expressed this so beautifully in this gorgeous poem Robert. I love this gem. I must Fave this melancholy yet beautiful poem. Blessings, Connie : ) xxoo
