Luna said...

[Shanti Shaharazade]

 

I walked outside barefoot, I love to feel Gaia that way

The concrete doesn’t matter, I felt her just the same

I looked for the Wolf’s full moon, the biggest moon of the year

Walked half a block searching, my eyes gazing everywhere

Erect and splendiferous, shining with all her passion and might

Shone Luna in all her brilliance, and oh what a breathtaking sight

 

I stubbed my toe on gravel, dismissed it without a thought

Ignored the cars, people and sirens, transfixed by Luna’s show

I am a child of nature, longing for simple things

I know that I need to run free, under the stars and trees

 

I don’t belong in this city, my path will soon be clear

My heart longs to sing, into nature’s attentive ear

Luna told me this, as I stood there on the street

Looking at her with all the passion, that’s ripe inside of me

 

My daughter, said the moon, looking deeply into my heart

Hiding your spirit inside; won’t protect you from the dark

You need to be still and hear the voice you know inside,

Don’t be in such a hurry to run away and try to hide..

 

love will Sustain you,

no matter the strength of

how negativity tries to claim you

 

*if you choose not to accept the love*...

 

the stresses and the worries will come and distract you

Leading you to the darkest and saddest of all paths..

 

so…

do...

 

Remember simple joys, remember please to laugh

You are such a luminous spirit with an important path

Now go and write it down, lest you will forget

That the promises and passions are waiting for you yet.
