Moonlight in the Sand

By Delaney Morse

Moonlight in the Sand is a collection of poems. I wrote from my heart, so these words are my emotions, thoughts, and dreams sitting on the pages before you. I write a lot about the night, because to me, the night is more than just a time of day - its a feeling, and a living thing and more than anything, an escape. During the busy hours of the day there is too much to do and too little time, but during the night there is nothing to do, nothing to fix, and nothing to break. The world is quiet, and if youve ever stood in the night, the true night, than you know how powerful silence is. In the moment when you can hear your own heart beat you realize that the night is a creature too. Its heart hangs in the sky above you, reflecting pale moonlight on to the sand, and that makes you feel something powerful enough to write about.
