Moon in Sagittarius

The Crossroads and a wish

🎶So now I’m walking on a tightrope wire

Too far off the ground🎶 -Ron Pope, "Tightrope"

To the reader:

I wrote this poem under a Sagittarius moon as I listened to beautiful melodies and wished better circumstances into existence. And of course, I cried.

Xoxo, Jennidoll

We were at the crossroads

Unexpectedly, you and I

I didn’t want to end up there

It shocked me, I can’t lie

I saw the cards that I’d been dealt

The hand was pretty good

Those weren’t the only cards at play

And now I understood

The Queen of the swords

The WISE queen she is

She bold and she’s brave

She's pulling ALL aces

*She carries her strength

like she carries the swords

The truth and some wisdom

She’s ready for war*

She knows what she’s doing

That was never in question

had to see her own power

That part I won’t mention

The chapter is closing

a new one commencing

Can’t we go back?

Just go back to beginning

It was cold at the crossroads

Which way to go

I’ve been tired and lost

And missing the flow

Time kept on passing

The way that it does

No longer waiting

On us to catch up

The wish at the crossroads

A wink from the fates

Somehow they knew

We had to walk through those gates

The Queen at the crossroads

The one with Aces

Trust me, I don’t think

That you’d switch her places
