Claudia from dVerse Poets has introduced us to a wonderful German artist, Judith Clay, whose dream-like paintings are our poetic inspiration this week. For more pictures and details, please visit Judith’s website http://society6.com/judithclay.
Blue Moon
Please take just this once my hand
and lead me to the terrace
to bathe in silken moonrays
drink in the shush of trees
laugh softly at the mewl of plaintive cats
and trace that whimper within us
eyes sinking in each other’s.
For once switch off reason
indulge in full moon madness
dance among the giants of Poesy
and leave
algorithms, measurements
to tremble just a little
at fear of your neglect,
your newfound magic powers.
And if you can’t lead, follow,
join me in this folly,
savour every twinkle
of fairy-silver dust.
As I ascend, so fly me
with eyes open to wonder
and planetary music our only constant guides.
Just be
Just feel
Oh sweetness
of stolen blue
moon incantation.
