NaMoWriPo # 20: I’ve missed 5 days of poetry writing because my mind was too on fire with casting decisions and pure exhaustion. Still coming out of it, but I can’t hardly let this day float away without an attempt as it is Shakespeare’s Birthday plus the anniversary of the day, I kissed my love for the first time and never looked back!

 

As This Old Moon Wanes

Methinks the old moon

Looks down from her watery orb

Surrounded by a haze

That stays enhancing

Her glowy eye that shines so bright

She gazes at us

Our eyes have gone from electric

To well-washed glass

With pinpricks of imperfections and bubbles

In the corners

Yet center focus

That goes in and out

Searching for each other’s

Thoughts and sighs

Under yonder companion

The bold harbinger in the sky

That said “lean into love”

Where we cuddled for warmth

In the sharp April wind

Gazing up wondering

If we would do this ever again

Or wander away from this night

Wrapped up in the dark robe of night

Thrown over our shoulders

We didn’t move

Stood in the moon’s spotlight

Willing her to marry us

Blessing what future we imagined

But we have but slumbered here

Whilst these visions did appear

Better than our dreams, my dear
