A fragmented moon is reflected on the ocean-

the lunar pearl has listened to pagans and wars

natives seek power that doesn't exist in it's

ancient stores. I hold a sea shell up to the night

winds and whisper a question into the shell-

I walk across the ocean of myself with the

moon reflected perfectly..

I like this one, too, Eclipse. Follows a serene trail out from the recent cauldrons seething in your work. Fine imagery and spare language, letting the power come through and capture the reader. Refrains. The reflection persists...

I like this, too, Eclipse. "Natives seek power that doesn't exist" is striking and memorable.

I keep returning to this piece. So quietly cosmic and pregnant with meaning. Not near enough reads.

 

Yes, I am moving it to the top of the reading list. Somebody slap me if that is bad! :rolleyes:

Agree with the above sentiments- warm, mysterious (don't know where warm comes from... a certain feel;-) and cosmic in its creativity;-)
