DRL said...

I told Sean it was really the gods frowning.

The moon is moving tonight,
on Her serenading eternal night flight,
quenching all star-fire by her mighty might.
As always been on Her continues voyage,
from eons past,
and still eons to come,
She moves on.

My eyes follow the Moons sparkling tail.
Silently floating,
She sails on by and smiles at me.
Soon the moon will touch the horizons ends,
where she will vanish by dawn,
into the deep abyss of twilight.

This night is much like all others,
As I lay under the eternal dome of flickering flames,
Horizontally in a silent solitary secrete session of wonder.
Her, and the Moon only rage my inter thoughts,
All in the company of a near by thunderstorm,
whose lightning splits the night and moves my hair.

Under Heavens spectrum of delight,
I dare not fall asleep this hour,
for my eyes are azimuth towards the zenith.
I am chilled, filled, with the tingling of awe,
Over Earths seven secrete wonders unanswered,
and the secret dimensions of Heaven yet to unfold.

Mat, I would pay to see that too.

Hi Jo, Did JT cook all the food?

Joanna said...

Just about.I did do the potato salad:)Oh and Jon B. brought chicken shishkabob's and I did see him flipping the meat:) J.T. went all out on shrimp keleguen down to the coconut shreddings.

juliet said...

Shrimp Keleguen waaaaaa I want some! Jo I was thinking about the Octupus sushi your mom made a few times when we were kids. Ask her how to make the octupus, does she boil it and for how long.

Joanna said...

j.T. boils it until it's kinda tender.Then we dig in,sometimes with coconut milk or like a stufao. My Mom,on the other hand,probably boiled it shorter because I remember wrestling with it:)
