Moonstruck

"The night walked down the sky with the moon in her hand."

~~Frederic Lawrence Knowles

Have you looked at the moon the last couple of nights?!?!!! It's absolutely beautiful and it's huge in the night's sky. I could sit outside and look at it for hours if not for the cold temperatures. It's this kind of moon that simply captivates me. Moonstruck. There's something to that word. I often become Moonstruck when that big beautiful winter's moon rises high in the sky. I know I tend to veer a little toward the dramatic, but I swear when I see a moon like that, I hear Pavarotti singing Nessun Dorma and the entire world is a romantic stage. On nights like this I actually believe that I am watching "stars which tremble with love and hope!"

Like I say, I'm a little dramatic...so allow me that. :-) I'm going for a moonlit walk with my sweetheart, and maybe I'll sing Nessun Dorma to him.
