Moonlight of Echoes
Vision of moonlight
Twirling chiffon
Translucent feelings
Dance until dawn
Echo of music
Haunting refrain
Transparent heartache
Cry in the rain
Whisper of longing
Candlelit glow
Cold winter's nightmare
Blanket of snow
Memory of spirit
Captured in flight
Volatile moment
Stormy cold night
Tears - lapse of judgment
Wounded proud love
Reach out for answers
From far above
Lack of compassion
Strengthened resolve
Unspoken feelings
Never involved
Slow passage of days
Days turn to years
Regret helps soften
Heart filled with tears
Hugs of forgiveness
Open warm smile
Find resolution
Talk for a while
Twinkle of starlight
Sharing a laugh
At long last finding
Love's other half
Echoes of moonlight
Roses romance
Too much time wasted
Once more we danced!
Note: Syllabic verse is a poetic form having a fixed number of syllables per line or stanza regardless of the number of stresses that are present.
I wrote this poem (For Ricky's Granny's contest) in a doctor's waiting room. I know I was worried and it was an appointment for my mother, not myself. My mother (who passed away some time ago) was sitting next to me when I wrote this.
