MOONSTRUCK

Cool, glowing orb

you enthrall, enchant

captivate, charm

mesmerize, seduce.

You do not burn

like the sun

do not flaunt your light

yet who is there

that does not love you,

that is not, because of you,

swept into a foolish act

at least once

in their careful lives,

maddened, ecstatic

moonstruck.
