As The Blood Moon Rises

The howling ‘neath a bloody moon

In distant dark, a haunting tune

A feral beast, sins of the night

Another nightmare taking flight

On blackest wings I see you fly

‘Neath blood red moon, the spirits cry

Blood moon rising, a witch’s rite

Darkly stirring within silent night

Incantations upon a howling moon

Spells and potions to make you swoon

Nightmare beasts fly on darkened wings

A tale untold of unspeakable things

Photo of full moon between the trees, by yours truly

A haunting sight before your eyes

As blood red moon begins to rise

  1. Kevin, your words summon nightmares so well, I’m double-checking my locks. Hauntingly brilliant! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜„

    Laura, if your spells work, I might need a potion or two. Mesmerizingly eerie!πŸ˜‚πŸ™ƒ

    Guys, You two just turned the blood moon into a gothic masterpiece. Chillingly fantastic!

      • The one I am familiar with and often reference is the one from Jewish mythology, but I’m not aware of another. Let me know what else you know! πŸ˜€ The name of my blog is based on the natal placement, however. Because it has to do with transformation and hidden aspects of our personalities. I wrote (a tiny bit) about it a long time ago here:

      • Oh yeah, β€œthe first Eve” definitely have read that as well. Haha. I’m a Libra! β™ŽοΈ I have a Pisces rising and a Cancer moon. πŸŒ• (which is why I’m obsessed with the moon, among other things!) lol. What about you?

      • Oooh nice! That’s so sweet! πŸ₯Ή I love Pisces, you definitely got the darkness and mix with a lot of depth, all those psychic traits πŸ˜† thanks for sharing! And happy belated birthday! Does your man have trouble making decisions ever? Supposedly the hallmark of being a Libra! (Although sometimes, I disagree!) lol.

      • If you read my header you’ll see it says “empath”; it’s true. Highly sensitive & aware, emotional to a fault, extremely understanding, forgiving and kind but don’t cross me, into the arts big time but lousy with numbers, great imagination, indecisive and/or impulsive, have a hard time saying “no”. You get the pic. Bill does have trouble making decisions; he thinks a lot and weighs his options as opposed to me jumping in head first!

      • Yes, I continue writing, but with less time because of work πŸ˜‘. πŸ€—I’ve also missed reading all of your texts and commenting more, each one with their own style, involving us and taking us to other dimensions. As for the blood moon and the eclipse, unfortunately it was cloudy here, but we will have other cosmic events throughout the year shaking our energies OMG lol.πŸ˜…πŸŒ πŸ”₯πŸŒ•And also the Sun transiting through the constellation of Pisces, lol. πŸ˜…πŸŒ β™“

  4. The moon photos had pastel shimmers like flickers of light refracting off gemstones! So gorgeous! That is one moon that encapsulates how I feel about the spellbinding poetry combined with spooky energy. That moon can turn souls in mysterious ways ~ ❀
