Dear LeAnn:

Thanks for your kind words. I hope you like this imagery - it's for you!

O, melting moon,
She drips puddles
Of light about my
Feet ...

Achingly, she lets out
A tiny groan, allowing
To slip a sole and final
Beam

That will caress my febrile
Brow, to reassure that, ever-
More, I will be La Luna's only
Love.

LEANN SAID

CoCo,

I loved it. Did you know I have a rather emotional attachment to the moon? It gave me great comfort as a child, during some very difficult times it was all that lit my world.

Thank you for sharing that with me. Did you write it?

Thank you, LeAnn.

Yes, I wrote it and I, too, have an attachment to the moon. I'll share my numerous moon poems with you ...

Must locate them.

All the best,

CoCo de la Lune

A cool sense of tranquility overtakes my troubled spirit.

I emerge slowly from a deeply entrenched nightmare and proceed into gentle reverie, into quiet wakefulness.

Youthful ideals, embodied in vaporous form on the street below, are a black reminiscence, certain to return as a want, an untold want, having neither name nor substance, only a niggling dig that skewers my soul.

I shut it out, shut out the noise in the head: irrational thought, excessive thinking that leads to depression, to insanity.

I see but darkly my amorphous reflection and sense it is a phantom, not the real me.

From behind scudding clouds comes an awakened moon that illumes my way and shows inner turmoil in a light that's new.

This black shadow of the walking dead, cast upon the asphalt by a gracious moon, shall be my companion ...
