The Moon's Whisper

The moon whispered to the sea, 'Tell me your deepest secrets.' And the sea, with its waves dancing, Revealed tales of lost ships, Of sailors' dreams and mermaids' songs. The moon listened, its silver glow Caressing the water's surface. It heard stories of love and longing, Of storms that raged and calms that soothed, Of tides that pulled hearts together. In return, the moon shared its own secrets: How it watched over lovers, How it witnessed births and farewells, How it wove threads of destiny Across the vast expanse of night. And so, the moon and the sea conversed, Two celestial beings bound by mystery, Their whispers echoing through time, Creating tides of wonder and reflection, Guiding hearts toward the infinite horizon. As dawn approached, the moon retreated, Leaving a trail of silver on the water. The sea sighed, holding its secrets close, And the night surrendered to the day, But the memory of their conversation lingered, A timeless dance between moon and sea. ©ayatullahnurjati @poemhutner.com Pantai Pasir Putih Pulau Peucang, July 13,2024
