This the blog of a would-be poet. As often as I am able, I will post a new poem. I may post sonnets, Haiku, other forms of poetry, and also free verse. Along with each poem, I will post the piece of music from which I drew inspiration. I would make the request that you start the music before you begin reading the poem. Music and Poetry are so closely tied, I believe they are best experienced together, and I encourage you to listen and read at the same time.

The Beauty that Awaits Us
The Sky, now dark, affords a wandering eye,
to glance about the world for perfect light.
He searches for the Moon to grace supply,
and patiently awaits their true Tonight.
The Moon, a spotless shimmer, stands alone,
her face, a glorious promise of her virtue.
She veils her truest silver for her throne
of comfort that the Sky did well pursue.
The Sky, when vacant, just a dark abyss,
an empty slate without a beam or glow.
The Moon, unmatched, awaits a Sky to kiss,
surrendering her love - a gentle flow.
Together, Moon and Sky, the waiting done,
Now serve the new world they have just begun.
