the grinning moon is resting
its light trailing through a meadow
lacing through the weaving wings of grace
sinking slowly, peacefully
stretching thin its lithe limbs
until the last peaks of his grin
become a shooting star you thought you saw
at the edge of your consciousness,
was it real or was it a dream.
I think he was winking.

ReplyDeleteIt is no dream but I find it hard to tilt my head far enough to turn the night's light to a grin.
