Hecate's Moon
I am the moon
I spell an otherworldly chant for you
words heard by but a few
I shine on you
children of the night
worshippers of Hecate
I am the moon
I see the footsteps
you will leave
upon the sands of time
some will allow roses
to grow, and others, thorns
I am the moon
I weld power beyond your ken
beyond the knowledge
and understanding of man
for nearer to ingenuity
Is the path to insanity
I am the moon
I walk in the darkness
path illuminated by visions
I travel in the twilight
sky, knowing no one like me
for I am the Moon,
I am magic, I am mystery,
I spell an otherworldly chant for you
words heard by but a few
I shine on you
children of the night
worshippers of Hecate
I am the moon
I see the footsteps
you will leave
upon the sands of time
some will allow roses
to grow, and others, thorns
I am the moon
I weld power beyond your ken
beyond the knowledge
and understanding of man
for nearer to ingenuity
Is the path to insanity
I am the moon
I walk in the darkness
path illuminated by visions
I travel in the twilight
sky, knowing no one like me
for I am the Moon,
I am magic, I am mystery,

This is such a beautiful, powerful, and magical poem! I love it. The night is such a special time for me. In the summer, I love to go outside each night to look at the stars and the moon, and to listen to the sound of the crickets and night birds. I always feel like some goddess is often smiling down at me from the innumerable stars above, and the mystery and beauty of the evening never fails to capture my imagination. All of that same mystery and beauty, and more, is within your poem. I thank you very much for sharing it here with us! Keep the magic, and the poetry, flowing strong, my dear friend.

Thank you dear Jessica, for reading and commenting. My favourite time of the day is twilight. I feel comfortable and at ease during this time of the day. Kitty then asked me to read a tarot card and what I am is the moon...scary but true.
re: re: Re: Hecate's Moon
Not scary at all! In fact, the moon to the ancients was the very face of the Goddess in all of her splendor, whether it be Diana, Artemis, or Tsukiyomi. In fact, the symbol of Tsukiyomi is very cute: a rabbit pounding a rice cake, which was said to be a representation of the shape of the moon's craters when viewed from a certain perspective. So the moon can be beautiful, adorable, and splendid. As well as scary, which to some the night still can be. So... there are worse things than the moon that one can have for their Tarot card symbolism. ;)

I love the way you worded that, kurtjmartinez, about the magic fog! Very poetic image in and of itself, my friend.

He did say it nicely didn't he. Gave a boost to more imagination inside this chaotic mind of mine. Thanks kurtjmartinez!
