Moonlight Odyssey

Moonlight Odyssey

A Poem
From the pen of

Jude Kyrie

Soft as the perfumed breath of flowers.
Dew spilled petals from evening showers.
The gentle night’s starburst hours.
Cover the world in dreams.

The reflected moonlight quivers
On rippled waters of the lakes mirror
Its shining wavelets come to me
Afraid to join the mighty sea
 
The night’s still silence, becomes colder
The pine trees outlines becoming bolder
The dark nights grip is broken
As dawn approaches with words unspoken

Against the lazy yawning sky
Daybreak’s fires are burning embers.
A nocturne no one else remembers.
Except the moon and I

~~---Music composed by
Claude Debussy
By The Light of the Moon
(Au Claire de Lune)
