Crescent Moon

Your cookie-cuttered crescent
   white shining  slender moon
hung solitary 
   in the crisp Autumn dark

Until a cloud  dressed in fog
   pulled the shade
   obscuring you 
to but  a silhouette.

Yet, as be the way  with things,
   your cloud shall drift away
to free your lighting
   of our shade.

To be sure  such not
   to be  for me...
My cloud's caught
   on a broken 
   edge
   of my heart
And she struggles,
   struggles
to be free.
