The Yellow Moon

The yellow moon,
In my visual field;
Shedding
Some light upon
The forgotten souls

Nigerian dancer,
This neophyte with attitude,
Turns on the charm
Doing the moon walk
For survival

The glorious
Days of antipodean spring
Bring back
Memories of the home
I left behind

October
Moonlight in Eden
Brings
Unbridled passion
And reasons to grin

I like the neophyte with attitude.
Where is the home you left behind?

Lovely Words
Moonlight in Eden
Really does bring
Unbridled Passions
And reasons to grin
(and gives reasons for the heart to sing)
