Once in a Blue Moon

I am reposting a poem from 31st July 2015 for the dVerse Poets Pub OpenLinkNight #168

 

Cushioned in the hand of night

The blue moon drowned out

All but the brightest stars

Bounced off broken glass in the roadside

Formed pearls in the water of lakes

Gushed like spilt champagne

Across the waves of oceans

Sculptured shadows in woods and forests

Made wolves howl

With her secret smile

Died in the early morning

To allow the sun to breathe
