A Little Light Poetry

Luna was fully aglow
And roll-
ing in
Pillows of cumulo-
Nimbus
Playing now you
See me
Now you don't
While the sea
Restlessly shook
Her shoulders
Waited
For the light
To drape
Her diamonds
Down her chest
And
Let sparkles
Dance across
Her breast

A little sea poetry for Peggy at poetryjaam.blogspot.com, I had been waiting for the right prompt to use that image of the full moon. She was playing the other night, when I drove home, with the storm clouds. Lighting them up and then disappearing--it looked to me like she was rolling around and having fun 😊 Happy Wednesday!
