The Silver Lady
The reflective orb
Does not absorb
But shines a light from the sun
The watery moon
Dies too soon
But not with a knife or gun
She watches over
The four-leafed clover
Swaying the tides at sea
But only men
Visit when
Their focus is on a dream
It's underneath
Conscious streams
That reveal her true powers
Listen to her
As emotions stir
And monsters turn into flowers
Have restraint
She will paint
A vivid world you create
It's from above
Descend with love
Where two forms coagulate
Silver and gold
As I'm told
Are precious qualities to attain
I miss her most
Like a ghost
Not when she waxes, but wanes
Does not absorb
But shines a light from the sun
The watery moon
Dies too soon
But not with a knife or gun
She watches over
The four-leafed clover
Swaying the tides at sea
But only men
Visit when
Their focus is on a dream
It's underneath
Conscious streams
That reveal her true powers
Listen to her
As emotions stir
And monsters turn into flowers
Have restraint
She will paint
A vivid world you create
It's from above
Descend with love
Where two forms coagulate
Silver and gold
As I'm told
Are precious qualities to attain
I miss her most
Like a ghost
Not when she waxes, but wanes

Put together so skillfully. :) I love the style of the measured rhyme. It sways like a song like the moon so inspiring. It reads nice.

Oh, the things we forget, swinging from desires to wishes. Getting higher on regret and fishing for what's left. That's when men remember what they buried. The magic we used to carry..
But only men

Re-connecting with the renounced, takes humility. That gives courage and fire to this piece, making it a real release. Thanks for writing this DPW! (Drunken Play on Words/Department of Powerful Water)

fine verse for the allure of the moon; without her, there would be no romance...

I love reading poetry that hids truths beneath words. I seldom can do such.
