They call the first full moon
of the new year
the Wolf Moon
such an intriguing name
such a beautiful sight
you want to pull it closer
as it casts its spell upon you
it lights the winter sky
fills you with awe and reverence
I don't want the scientific explanation
I don't need to know
I like the moon the way it is
full of romance and mystery
a thing of beauty to be wondered about
like a young bride behind a veil
you think of all the possibilities.

It was beautiful x
I agree with you D.K. There is so little mystery left in this world as we scour every little crevice to unearth their secrets.
A nicely balanced piece. Well done.

Really splendid writing! Have always loved watching the moon, from that slim silver sliver when new, to the huge luminous orange sphere of a harvest moon. Liked the last three lines too!!!!!
