Many thanks to everyone who reads my poetry, and for your comments and “likes”. I appreciate your comments and feedback immensely!
My apologies for being so far behind reading everyone else’s poetry. Because of escalating back pain I need to stay off the computer for a few more days (or as long as it takes). Will hopefully be back soon – to get caught up. I miss you all, and the interflow of ideas and inspiration.
With gratitude and best regards,
Betty

Moon waxed too full
and shattered into pieces
at her feet.
She gathered up the silver bits
to form them into Moon again
but they no longer fit.
And so she reached her hands
into the sky
and tendered them with Sun,
and then with strokes
of deep caress
she smoothed the craters
of the shards
and shaped them into Heart.

Eros never sleeps
in pitchy rooms.
He wakens
in a roll of laughter,
pulls us to a clearing
in the forest
where he strokes our cheeks
and gives us up
to dance.
When life inhales
Eros grins:
there is no dark side.
