Letters to the Moon


~ Letters to the Moon ~
 
 
My Dearest Moon,
 
About last night...
You sent me the perfect dream
you lit the candles, and set the scene
and though I couldn't quite make out his face in the shadows
I knew his soul mirrored mine.
It was an enchanted moment,
and it sees me through the day.
Thank you for the wonderful gift.
 
     Fondly, a Dreamer
 
 
Dear Moon,
 
About last night...
I have to thank you, for your guidance
'trust your heart, let Fate decide'
you whispered in my dream.
I never would have found her
if it hadn't been for you.
 
Best regards, a Listener
 
 
My Dearest Moon,
 
About last night...
It was just a prelude, right?
An introduction, of sorts,
to the rest of my life?
As the dusk grows darker
I have to wonder
will I see him again tonight?
 
     Fondly, a Dreamer
 
Dear Moon,
 
About last night...
I surrendered to you
and lost my heart to her.
I've heard no one has the same dream twice
but if you don't mind
could you take me there again?
 
Best regards, a Listener
 
My Dearest Moon,
 
About last night...
You left a bit of mystery
as to who my love might be.
If I could just ask this one favor
- a bit of clarity
so I may find him in your absence.
 
     Fondly, a Dreamer
 
Dear Moon,
 
About last night...
I get it now.
The light you showed me, was hers.
A reflection of love
you bounced straight to me;
and now, I know the way.
 
Best regards, a Listener
 
 
My Dearest Moon,
 
About last night...
I understand your gift now.
Before, where I couldn't see his face
the shadows were mine.
I had to clear the cobwebs
to open my eyes to him.
I know, I shall see him again.
 
     Fondly, a Dreamer
 
p.s.  Until tomorrow night...
