Into The Mooning Glow




When life overwhelms me,
and my spirit is low,
I seek shelter and solace
in the mooning glow.

Security and comfort
are in the silver light,
as Selene sails serene
through the magic night.

This nocturnal haven
commands that Chaos cease:
a mantra of reflection
ensures continued peace.

The splendour of the night
points where I must go:
into the shining temple
that is the mooning glow.

Welcome, and Namaste

Greetings fellow travellers,

For you American friends visiting, you will notice that this old Canadian uses Canadian English in this blog: kindly bear with me. As I blog primarily on subjects that are vitally interesting to me, I appreciate all feedback.

As I tend to be a bit of a language usage freak, I will, as required, edit obscenity and rude comments. That said, I welcome your opinions and discussion.

May your Dharma be clear

Peace

"If we shadows have offended,
Think but this, and all is mended:
That you have but slumb'red here,
While these visions did appear."
