Musings on Life, Love, and Linguine-Poetry & Writing
A silvered sheaf of moonlight
spills through the barren trees
dancing across the forest floor
calypso leaves dressed in finest hues
–Moonlight orchestra–
Abstract haunting melodies
in shades of persimmon
bronze- fire- amber harmonizing
as they howl to the wolf blood moon

I really enjoyed this Linda, full of color and the moon – I really love that moonlight dancing across the firest floor! I love the moon! 🙂
BTW – The Super Blood Wolf Moon eclipse starts here on the West Coast tonight at 6:36 PM, with the full eclipse at 9:12 PM. Both times are Pacific Standard Time. Unfortunately, we may have clouds, so I AM BUMMED!

Love this little ditty, Linda
I like the painting too, really nice. Is it one of your works. A lot of us got familiarized with the wolf blood moon this week. I know that it does cast a silver image on our hallway floor shining through our transom window.
