Mid-Autumn Thoughts 2
Mid-autumn sums a moment's joy;
A festive psalm that warms employ.
Children flood choice with bright lanterns;
Processions voice joy-ride that burns.
Bright lanterns sway with windy breeze;
Mid-autumn plays moonlight and ease.
I sit right here by moonlit lake;
Aura floods sphere -- a dazzling take.
I sip fine tea, think thoughts of you;
Touch feels easy: sad, empty cues.
I sit with me, feel sombre mood;
Tea memories usher sad good.
I sit and stare, blank as a page;
Empty, laid bare, an ancient stage.
Thoughts drift away to ancient times;
Mid-autumn plays echoes and chimes.
This pavilion speaks softly calm;
Ancient visions converge with psalm.
