The Face of the Moon
The moon's face is veiled
hiding her radiant beauty
in the evening sky
On land and on sea
shadows can be seen moving
under her dim light
Cautious and careful
each move with a measured step
precisely taken
Night becomes shelter
for stalkers and criminals
when moon hides her face
Darkness is embrace
by wanton thieves and robbers
on a moonless night
When moon shows her face
earth becomes a lovers' lane
for the poets' hearts
