De at dVerse is hosting and it’s time to write a quadrille (44 words) and De has invited us to use some form of the word sky.
dVerse Poets – Quadrille – Sky
“The moon always finds an opportunity to turn our attention from the ground beneath our feet to the sky above our head.” Mehmet Murat Ildan
Offer Moon poised gracefully in the night sky demure behind her veil of clouds, glow as smile never borrowed, beauty spots alluring, O to brush her cheek with more than a sigh of longing, to rise on tip-toe and offer the love lighting my eyes. ©Paul Vincent Cannon

Paul, This is so beautiful! ❤ I often walk out to look at the night sky if I wake up in the middle of the night. 🙂 Have a great night! Cheryl

I do that too, I also have a telescope so if I have time I like to gaze more closely at the night sky, especially the moon. Thank you for that Cheryl.

Thank you De, yes, I gather there’s a few of us. I like the sun, but I really love the moon. This fell beautifully into my creative thoughts as I have been writing about the moon more intentionally these past weeks. Glad to know you too are in love with the moon 🙂

I was pleased to see another moon poem. There is something alluring about it. Every time I go outside at night, I have to look for it, and it’s as if I’m seeing it anew. Time after time after time. Your poem captures that feeling so well.

I do that too Liz, always looking for the moon. I must say that cloudy nights and fog make it so disappointing. And yes, new every time. Thank you indeed.
