and the moon, their paths
only touching at dawn
and dusk, he, longing for

Oviellejo #13
on the cusp
even when the moon’s waxing full
I feel her pull
a hint of stardust in the wind
drawing me in

New Moon
shadow moon
dressed in black
let the fiddler play a
lively lick…we will sleep
beneath the purple diamond
misted sky, dreaming

her brilliance cannot be muted
luminous mistress of the night
cloud swells magnify her light
even shaded, she blushes red
luminous mistress of the night
her brilliance cannot be muted
