Inspiration
Upon a chin of gold
you sit,
not man,
but madonna
of twinkling sky,
birthplace
of dogmas
and devotion,
of blue-lit nights
and silver stars
sprinkled
upon mortal souls,
you smile,
as I, below,
seek answers,
grasp inspiration -
pledge to go,
to be, to live.

It is also a part of my Emily Dickensin reflection series - "The Moon, by Emily Dickinson"
It's been a long time since I have written a poem as I've been focusing on my mixed media/collage art. I hope to be back here writing regularly.

The moon is such an inspiration... personally I have always thought of the moon more like silver than gold... but I like the way you present her.
You've said it all, and said it so well.
One would never know from this that you haven't written a poem in a long time. I like madonna of twinkling sky. Thanks for visiting my blog too.
Pledge to go, to be, to live...a mantra indeed!
Birthplace of dogmas.... And wild imagination too!!!
A lovely poem ~~ so nice to see you here.
This is beautiful, Margaret!
Great to see you back, Margaret! I had been thinking about you! Keep going, being, living!
