Blood Moon

The BLood Moon and the Snake.

Blood Moon

 

A snake hunting through the night

sees the Blood Moon up above

wishing he could take to flight

with the wings of a sweet dove.

 

He shall never get to bite

this prey that he’s dreaming of

though he’s tempted by that light

that all snakes are born to love.

MMM the snake in all its glory. Mesmerised by red the colour of passion. Well written.

Thanks for your review, Troy! Life seeks infra-red passion.

[Ayushi]

There is so much that you have expressed within these lines.
It's reality that most of the attractive things are unattainable.
Nice read :)

[Aethereal]

Thanks for your review, Ayushi!
.
How high the moon?
How deep the sea?
How sweet the tune?
Seek novelty!

[Matching Socks]

Hmm. This has a hint of sadness. Love unattainable. Admiring from a distance.
Good write.

Thanks for your review, Ance! Yes, the poor obsessed snake. Snakes love embracing things that possess infra-red body heat, but they do so all too tightly.

Wonderful write .. Very beautiful title. You`ve got a great way to express some deep thoughts with your words.

You know what? I think, this write`s too written in some syllables, and I`ve much tried to learn your talent too but anyhow or may be .. somehow, I couldn`t!! Because may be, your talent`s not for me. I`ve much tried to know how to check accents and whatever on word processor and on some other sites and blah .. blah .. blah .. even though, I`ve already taken some help of Google either but it`s too seemed utterly fruitless to me and in last, what all I decided is .. "I should focus on my own talent what I love because I believe, everyone`s got some talent ..a talent of talent and they all are very good with that ... sometimes some talents are not meant to be learnt ..they`re naturally born with the veins ... like yours." So, I think, I better should keep focusing on my own talent because to be honest, many times, I distracted from my own talent walking after ~~ learning yours. After thinking allot, In last what all I decided is ... "I QUIT!" My apologies but yeah ... you`re better with your talent and no one can copy that. Everyone`s got their own .... isn`t it? *Wink* I just enjoy reading your stuffs but your basic concepts like syllables and whatever are totally outta my creative mind so, My apologies for that. I just love your stuffs and I know, once i`d yearned to learn your talent but I don`t think, my heart really wanted to me do that ... and we all should hear the voices of our heart .. isn`t it? So, I quit!! It does`t mean ..I give up!! I hate giving up but but what`s not made for us ..how can we earn that? No--way!!

"Anyway .. I enjoy reading your writes and I simply want to enjoy reading your stuffs, as long as i`m walking over the plates of this site."
I like the beats of your words and whatever ... this write`s very good with words, I like how to emerged some deep words with your thoughts .. Good one! keep writing!!

Thanks for your review, Stephen! Perhaps you should just forget all the rules and just write free verse. Just express how you feel using your rustic vocabulary. Sometimes rustic buildings look better than refined ones.

[Stephen]

My pleasure! You`ve always been much supportive to me. Thanks, Sweety .. *Wink*

even snakes wish upon a star riding on the blood moon

[Aethereal]

Thanks for your review, wordman! Every life form has a passion for something. Deep within our early prehistoric heat seeking sauros brains we too have a passion for red: red cars, red shirts, lipstick, and so forth.

finally...a snake associated with love rather than the evil venom in his bite.

but then there is the tempting shone here...it's in reverse of what happened in the Garden...
too bad that original snake wasn't born to love.

neatly done.

[Aethereal]

Thanks for your review, jacob! Snakes are captivated by the red and infra-red.

[Sami Khalil]

I feel someone is not easily deceived, taken by temptation or enticed to a sweet love. I feel she is keeping him at bay. An excellent mysterious write...Bravo.....................

[Aethereal]

Thanks for your review, Sami! I like how you personified the blood moon as one keeping the snake at bay.

[Sami Khalil]

Yep. You are welcome...:)..............................

[The Rock And Roll Cowbo..]

Hmmm wickedly mysterious, I love the cryptic message… I am taking it as we cannot not all be the same but it doesn;t mean we cannot get along.

[Aethereal]

Thanks for your review! This cryptic message has many interpretations. The blood moon, dove, and snake are powerful symbols.

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

hey that is the best poetry when you can interpratite it in many ways. Awesome writing.
