Falls of Lunar Light

She walks the path of a distant memory

as she trips over pebbles of the heart

Along the banks of once upon a time

when romance was a tender form of art~

Whispers in the wind of moonlight

a soft breeze of a melancholy sigh,

And shadows upon the wall of yesterday

and nights beneath a black lingerie sky~

The taste of sweet grapes and purple passion

she wears the essence of another time,

And sips long stem goblets of summer rain

and swims naked in the lagoon of her mind~

Crystal blue waters are calling to her

and wildflowers from another day;

She bathed within falls of lunar light

and made love within meadows of bouquet.

"when romance was a tender form of art--" --such a beautiful line.

I could choose many beautiful lines and images in this one, as it is filled to the brim with tranquil and sublime texture and emotion. I love the metaphor of someone walking through memory and how that relates to life in general. A beautifully endearing bit of poetry.

Ah, I had a feeling of reminiscence as I read this. (A strange thought crossed my mind, and it was that you were writing about yourself). No problem, as you post more poems, I'll be more than happy to read them.

[Archangel Gabriel]

This poem has a clarity and sensuality to it. It is beautifully descriptive in lovely metaphors and flows like the waters of the falls in the photograph

[SyberRose]

Thank you very much and so nice to hear from you Archangel...Rose:)
