Moonlight...

"'Tis moonlight, summer moonlight,

                                 All soft and still and fair;

The solemn hour of midnight

Breathes sweet thoughts everywhere,

But most where trees are sending

Their breezy boughs on high,

Or stooping low are lending

A shelter from the sky.

And there in those wild bowers

A lovely form is laid;

Green grass and dew-steeped flowers

Wave gently round her head."

~ Emily Bronte

Moonlight, Summer Moonlight

The magic of moonlight... 
ah, yes!
Some of us love to go outside and just gaze at her wonder,
while others take to task the labors of love
while reaping the rewards 
that draw forth in Mother Nature's shadow.
I so much appreciate the special time when the moon is full,
when one dares to dream of all that may be possible.
The moment of losing oneself within romantic notions of dreams 
that once brought visions of what was to come, 
only to realize that those very dreams and gypsy visions 
have always been and always will be possible...

The moon is a reminder from Mother Nature to us all,
I believe that although we sometimes forget about her 
amidst our daily living, 
she is always there for us...
a constant, most powerful force.
