Ageless
Heavens Lantern
Has there been a time when you were not? How many lifetimes have we waited to be in this moment, longing to be the object of your affection.
You are of the wind and sky, older than the ages, yet still you compel lovers to fall, dreamers to swoon, and adventures to wander. Pulling spirits like stars, creating waves of desire as the ocean swells, reflecting the borrowed beauty of the sun
How many have witnessed and struggled to pen the incredible spectacle that is your beauty.
Are you delighted as we gather to gaze as you linger like art, hanging in the velvety sky?
I am but a speck, a grain of sand circling in the wind of your orbit wanting only to bask in your glow
What words could I create to match the wonder and power of your magnetic resonance. Heavens lantern casting your silver glow upon creation.
Such power, lovingly bestowed, effortlessly renewing the desire of life and love. Directing the stars and driving the waves, moving hearts with ease.

Love your photo and this gorgeous piece, Kelli! Beautiful word choices, and the flow is fantastic! Great entry! 🩷✨
Beautiful "poestroy" , Kelli. I Ioved the words, they were gentle and swaying.
My comment is gone. Did I imagine it? Our shared free piece of Universal ArT that I truly hope "man" does not screw up!
What a beautiful poem/story of a celestial body. Good job.
Wow, this is such a powerful and romantic tribute! It makes whatever you're talking about seem like a truly cosmic, timeless force. The lines about being "of the wind and sky" and "Heavens lantern" really give a sense of its incredible, enduring beauty.
A heart-warming rendition, an ode to our moon's ever presence; beautifully crafted Kelli!
Great poem and a great photo to go with it :)
Well-wrought! Great pic too! The moon shines in stark relief in the midst of the grainy, mist-shrouded surroundings and fits well the theme of your piece.
What a beautiful tribute to the moon! You really captured the wonder and awe that the moon instills in our hearts.
