My girl is special
Words fail me in description;
Her face like that of a full moon,
Round and ever so vibrant.
On nights of a full moon she comes to life
Her back arches,
Her nails extend
Her teeth elongate
Her toes become claws
Her hairy exterior glows
She discards clothing
Runs erratically
The perimeter of the yard.
Howls with blood curdling ferocity
Disappears for hours on end
Returns home sated,
Slinks into my bed
Her fury coat warm against the winter chill,
Snuggles into me
Sleeps peacefully.
At dawn she awakens
My beautiful girl
The girl with the full moon face is back.

Whoaaa! 😀 Such an incredible depiction of the girl with the full moon face. She sounds exciting as well as terrifying all at the same time with reference to “Howls with blood curdling ferocity, disappears for hours on end and returns home sated.” Beautifully executed! Thank you so much for participating at Prompt Nights Michael 🙂 and for your constant love and support ❤❤
Lots of love,
Sanaa
Thanks Sanaa it was fun this week……thanks for the great prompt..
You’re most welcome Michael 😀 and hey we both wrote on the same lines! ❤
Yes and I see Magaly did something similar, is it great minds Sanaa or how we think when moonlight is mentioned…lol
Lol 😀 I am guessing both!
Just wondering were you able to access my recording of the poem?
Yes ofcourse 🙂 it was a lovely addition.
Ok I only ask as I find on my ipad I can’t access the recordings and I think sometimes it adds another dimension to the poem…..so thought I’d give it a try this week since I have “mastered” the recording program….
It was a fantastic idea 🙂 thank you so much for sharing the recording Michael.
Glad I sound ok Sanaa, I know my accent can be hard for some people, as I’ve discovered…so I try and speak as slowly as I can….some days it works better than others…
Don’t be silly 🙂 you sound just fine. By the way are you on Facebook?
Yes I am on FB…..thank you glad I sound fine…..
Been trying to find you there so I could add you to the Prompt Nights group page 🙂
I’ll see if I can find you…..
Okay 😀
Are you the only Sanaa Rizvi?
Yeah 🙂 plus you can recognize my picture I guess…
yep that’s the page I found…

Got it 🙂
This is s great story and the love a trust shown by the man is admirable, but I expect she is worth it! Your voice over is fine and I look forward to reading (or hearing) your future work.
Oh thank you so much….glad you enjoyed this piece…😄
I’m sorry I nearly fell off the couch laughing. Probably just nerves. It had to have been quite a fright to witness that first breakout of the glowing exterior! 😂 But certainly would add a new dimension to the relationship. That was a great read Michel 😄
Yes you can imagine it coming as a surprise but the snuggle at the end of her night would have made up for it I would think. Thanks Mandy, glad to give you a giggle.😄
😂
Now that I’ve just listened to the recording, I don’t find the poem funny; rather, it’s quite spellbinding and even sensuous. Must be your voice 😄 I enjoyed both versions very much, Michael.
Hmm yes thought that aspect might come through, obviously in the reading…lol
so much fun reading this…
Thanks Sumana lovely you could stop by.
Such a beautiful piece of prose – and one of acceptance.. it could be fantasy or it could be that each loves each other for who they are and all of their special features
I love this, Michael. I’m enchanted by the fact that he loves all of her, and that even after such transformation she knows to come home to cuddle with her heart.
P.S. You and I were riding the same thought waves, indeed. 🙂
Such a great monster story. Your recording added so much to the enjoyment of it
Thank you. I have you to thank for putting me onto audioboom as a resource so thanks for that….and yes a monster story but an oh so lovable one I think…..
Even King Kong had his Fay Wray…
yes so true, there’s hope for us all….lol
An enjoyable read. You should consider reading for 2RPH, Michael.
What is 2RPH?
It’s a digital reading radio station for visually impaired folk. I’m not visually impaired (well, not much) but I love it. It has a wide range of programmes and is available in Newcastle. They have book reads too. These are the link for the programmes and the “listen now” pages.

Thank you Rosemary you are very kind…..
Am shuddering with joy at this piece …hubby used to call me his little werewolf lol…I even have the tattoo 😀 XXX
Thanks Georgina…was it the howling or the furry bits that he liked?
Now that would be telling 😀
Once bitten, they say, but you don’t seem shy at all. Welcome to the dark side.
