Moonlit Shadow
.
Long ago, I was the child I was then.
On silvery nights
I roamed across
the dark green lea
Above, the moon
hovered, and awe
was all of me.
I moved, it moved.
I stopped, it stopped.
I didn't know why.
A guardian angel,
perhaps, that
egg yolk in the sky.
On winged feet,
I raced with glee,
across the meadow
to outrun and
leave far behind
my own shadow.
Tonight, I am the child I was, again.
