A Love Story/Adonis and the Pagan Moon
~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~



Sea spray scatters as the crescent moon
moves upon the ocean dance floor
her gown of silken silver flows
about her with each swoop and sway

She dances for Adonis as he watches her
from his perch within the evening sky
His shoulders do not tire from the burden
of the world for he would carry the universe,
if only to watch her dance

The northern lights illuminate the love-drunk
visage of the two so far and yet so near to
never and forever, yet still they yearn
For, what is an existence without love?

They speak in silence, for love transcends
all language…all thought
There are no words; no use for them
For what they need, they see within each other
So, she shall dance and he will watch in silence

This, their love eternal, between Adonis and
the pagan moon
