Notes About The Poem

Winter Moon

Whispers in a january evening
Infringe upon the sullen silence.
Nature doles its peaceful sleep.
Tranquility come along bearing gifts
Enticed by embers scattered across the sky,
Radiant rebels in the night.

Modestly a moonstone hangs above the horizon,
Ovation worthy though she be.
Oceans sway to her command,
Nuptials possibly in the cards.
