October Moon

The magical light that is the moon

October Moon

 By Jack Ivey

 

Aglow upon yon heavens bright

A’ shimmer on the evening sky

O’er darkness of an ample cast

October’s moon now floating by

 

A light to wish upon our dreams

Of days gone by and yet to come

Reflections on the fielded crest

A weaving of the thread we’ve spun

 

We gaze upon with much adore

In precious passing still we see

Of nighttime breeze and silhouette

Created by thy majesty

 

As shadows dance about and play

Upon the ground which we do tread

Alone before this evening due

We lie as one on earthen bed

 

In love I hold her by my side

My autumn’s only perfect bloom

I whisper that my love shan’t die

Beneath the bright October moon

 

Illumined is her wondrous smile

Within the glow from up above

Her eyes reflect thy golden light

Forever shining of our love

Parting in sweet sorrow,
the eternal pangs of separation!
I liked the titled very much...I too had a poem called October rain somewhere but i forget.
Thank you Jack.

Not a fan of love poetry. But I like the description. Probably the October moon is the most beautiful of all.
