Moon Maiden coyly veils

Her face in the dark

Mask of a star filled night.

–

I push my toes deeper into

Star lit beach and look

Out at the vastness of

Ocean’s rising waters.

–

I push myself deeper into

Star-filled body of mine

Looking out at the vastness

Of emotions that seek me out.

–

I stand within the space of

Eternity and the promise of

Moon Maiden’s quickening kiss.

–

She reaches out with delicate finger

Of moonbeam filling me with

Starlight and the exuberance of life.

–

The waters of healing surround

Lifting me gently from my

Place of digging deeply into

The changing sands of time.

–

Maiden Moon lifts her veil

Of darkness and fills me with the

Waxing tides of healing Light.

–

Her eye is bright

As her body undulates

In a sea of starry expanse.

–

She rises high overhead and

Light from her hand spills

Down like droplets of soft rain.

–

Stars sparkle in the velvet of her

Night cloak and darkness beckons

To be held in her embrace.

–

All of earth moves in resonance with

The rise and fall of her breath and

The great waters are quickened in

Her womb of fullness.

–

I sit in the silence of moonlit night

And I weep at the profound beauty

Of Luna’s nightly rising.

–

Salty water flows gently

Over glistening white sand.

In this moment of moonlight’s grace,

She and I are as one.
