Numers petals fell upon a stillness lonesome pond Yarning tenderly in the rippling waves quiet song

MOONCHILD ~ ACROSTIC

M ystic sister of the moon
O ptimistic heart in tune
O pen minded friend to all
N octurnal princess of nightfall
C hisled gemstone of the sky
H aunting harlot of your eye
I ntuitive child of the sea
L ovable as you can be
D esirable and fancy-free

Fiercest is the bark
of the wolf in the fight.
Lonesome is the cry
in the dark of the night.

The bark draws blood
and the cry a tune,
the two combined
draw tears from the moon.

MOONMUSE ~ ACROSTIC

M y soul cries out in jaded hues.
O nly real love can chase away my blues.
O nyx shadows swallow me whole.
N eglected down deep in my soul,
M isery plagues me like disease
U ntil I suffer a numbing freeze.
S ilent screams shatter my skull to pieces.
E xistence as I know it ceases.
