Moon Ate the Dark Challenge: Coming of the Dawn – Eugenia

ebbing of twilight
ebony sky no ivory
wandering omens
silhouettes on the shade
yes, I saw your face
star-crossed lovers
hush the sad, sad song
life’s a slippery slope
my imaginary friend

ah, not the last dance
lives left better to chance
good morning starshine
the moon ate the darkness
all the world is a stage
behold, let the sunshine in
such a lovely place, let it be
let it be from me to you
I’ll follow the sun
born to be alive
yesterday.


I enjoyed a dedicated career in the insurance industry for over 20 years of being rewarded both professionally and personally. Now it’s time for me to follow my dreams by doing things I enjoy…spending time with family, traveling, writing poetry and encouraging others to pursue their goals.

  1. A simply glorious finale Eugenia, your made me feel like dancing
    “behold, let the sunshine in
    such a lovely place, let it be
    let it be from me to you
    I’ll follow the sun
    born to be alive
    yesterday.”
    And follow the sunshine, whoops, it’s 1.25am, and pitch black…. I’m only on my phone, but I’ve a song for you…… I’ll need to send a 2nd comment
