shadow poetry

Luna

You

   were my

      first dandelion

         wish, my cotton

           candy kiss, and sweet

            lullaby.  With you nested

              in the palm of my hand,

               we became one with the night,

               ruling over the stars in the sky.

               You have been my guiding light

                through sleepless nights, my

               muse, and friend, always

              lending a listening ear, and

            offering your soft, glowing

          light to ease my fears.

       You are my warm,

    goodnight moon,

Luna.
