BENEATH THE MOONLIGHT

BENEATH THE MOONLIGHT Walk with me beneath the moonlight – We’ll enjoy some moments on our own while the children’s dreams are taking flight – Walk with me beneath the moonlight.

What if there were two moons orbiting the earth mirroring each other’s motion?

WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE: ILLUMINATION

The theme this week made me think of darkness broken by light. So my first impulse was to have pictures of things that brighten the night. I almost forgot that the sun is the greatest of all the lights. we’ll be in unbroken darkness without it. So, I included two daylight pictures showing sunlit images.Continue reading “WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE: ILLUMINATION”

A WINTRY NIGHT

Inky black cold blankets the white snowy ground howling wind protests – Where’s the moon quiet behind the clouds as shadows roll by. The fire glowed warm bodies licked the cold behind closed doors. __________________ The form that DVerse Poets’ Pub features today is La Lune.   It is inspired by the haiku and has eitherContinue reading “A WINTRY NIGHT”
