Upon the far
horizon
A glowing
light appears
The moon in
all her majesty
Her
ascension all reveres
Ocean waters
shimmer
Black
transforms to gold
Bundled up
by swirling waves
To the sea
king be sold
Rising in
radiant brilliance
Luna lights
the night blues
Clouds
billow above the deep
Clothing her
with white hues
Dazzling
majestic moon
With your
pure robes
Hemmed with
glittering gold
Around your
shimmering globe
Stars dance
in pure delight
Honouring
her majesty’s reign
Twilight
quickly fades to none
Her beloved she
seeks in vain
Sailing
across the murky skies
Where to has
he gone?
Sadness
shadows across her face
Luna’s
search alone finds none
Day by day a
veil of grief
Covers her
sheer wonder
Hiding
herself from the world
Behind the
horizon yonder
Just before
all hope is lost
Her back she
turned to cry
Rays of pure
delight and warmth
Begins to fill
up the sky
Could it be
the tide has turned?
Luna’s long
lost love returns
Covering and
embracing her in
Adoration in
his heart that burns
The brilliance
of Solaris flares
Showing his
heart’s fire is true
The veil of
darkness slips away
Joyful bliss
in the sky now blue
Turning to
her love once gone
Tears of
sadness wiped away
Luna’s face
in fullness glows
Magnetic
dance begins to sway
Embrace in
celestial display
Merging
marriage of delight
Union in
eclipse be awed
Ring of
light and love burns bright
