Your thoughts are a blessing to read and receive. 🙏🏼
Invisible Cage
she is clay
she is stardust wrapped
in constellations
she is inception
seeking purchase
in the warm brown earth
she is a scavenger bird
wings beating
against her invisible cage
surviving
on scraps
“Let our scars fall in love.”

Your selection of words jostled a memory of a poem I wrote many moons ago, when I was young maiden moon. 🙂 Off I went to forage through my old poetry journals to find it. I present it to you, faded ink, flourishing cursive, and all.
Dancing down the moon tonight, spirits whisper of sweet delights, basking in her luminous gleam, we dressed in garlands made of dreams. Wrapped within the veil of night, we savored her nectar made of light. And when she waned, flowers bloomed, in the recesses where shadows loom. (To think, this was waiting for you, all this time)

I’m in your orbit. Watching for moonshine, shadows, night birds and dreams.
