Day 5.. NaPoWriMo New Moon in Aries
A Villanelle. A french form of poetry that I feel compelled to try. A first time dive.
The first line I choose to begin this poem is from the Astrological Sabian Symbol for this New Moon.
It spoke to me. I read it on www.mysticmamma.com. A worthy site for following the Lunation of the Moon
~
Nature Spirits are seen in the Light of Sunset
A finger snap out of the shadows dancing
Soften your eyes to the magic to see what you get
~
Quick in our ways of busy we forget
In child like wonder lives this remembrance
Nature Spirits are seen in the Light of Sunset
~
All hail to a heart wide open to be Spirit met
On the horizon in the forest light seen
Soften your eyes to the magic to feel what you get
~
In the meadows and gardens they set
Among the blooms of flower scent
Nature Spirits are seen in the Light of Sunset
`
Oh to be of a child’s mind in no regret
Of joy and innocence with eyes wide open
Soften Your eyes to the magic to see what You get
~
Surrender, receive with innocent eyes re-set
Take in the Sunrise for recalibrated refresh
Soften your eyes to the magic to see what you get
Nature Spirits are seen in the Light of Sunset
