Song To Luna

 

 

Am I lost to thee forever?

The moon throws off thine light

I stumbled and fell along my way

Yet mine ear heareth thy voice still

 

Thine every sound and tone

Shall I cast my troubled heart

Into the river near or far?

 

Luna, Goddess of  theMoon

Heareth me now in thine light

Thee who lights theHeavens above 

 

Come down to me

Come back to me  

I layeth my heart unto the root of thy tree

Please reach down thine hand 

    Bring me back up to Thee

A beautiful poem. I understand why people still praise the moon. When the moon is complete. She is a powerful sight. I like the feel and emotion of your words to reach out to Luna and try to escape to her. A outstanding poem. Thank you.

The Moon Goddess shines her light for the world to see, beautiful poem.

[Patches I'm not so new..]

This to me sounds like a song, nay a hymn that one would sing to Artemis the Moon-Goddess
asking for a blessing or the fulfilment of a prayer request beautifully said a plea from the heart to the Goddess that the poem's persona is serving.

Thank you Audrey Howitt, so far, you're the only one to catch on that it was a 'prayer", althought it could read as wither a love poem to a lover or a prayer
Thank you

[Audrey Howitt]

What a wonderful prayer. Thank you for a great read on a sunny afternoon!

[Shayla Sayer]

wow. thats all i can say. wow. this one would've done well on The Celtic Cauldron ... before it closed down. great job!

I imagine this as a lullaby, beautifully written and staged, almost coherent of mind and sullen promise, well done, good read.

wonderfully lyrical. the language used suits the piece admirably. the imagery is very good and it flows beautifully. good write. :)
