Moonlight’s Ring Poem by Michele Clucas

The darkness closes in – Extending for an eternity
I start losing myself, light but a distant memory-
Slowly fading as the black conquers every moment,
The past, this present, my future!
I let go, drifting in the sadness – my soul overwhelmed.

Silver light shatters the night
Reviving me, reminding me, guiding me
Moonlight infusing my soul
The glow transforming my tears to crystals –
Their ethereal shimmer - keeping the shadow at bay!

The light weaves around me - Bonding itself to my soul
An unending ring of love
The sentinel sent to watch over me –
The shield for my hopes, my dreams and my passion
Always with me – always enfolding me!
