A Silhouette

A SILHOUETTE

                     I stare at starry shiny sky.
                      Silhouette pasted by Moon light.
                   Little pieces of cloud float by.
                         Cast of blurred shadow at night.

                     My hazy dreams hastily fly.
                          Urge and wobbling started to fight.
                      Restless mind not to pacify.
                           My passion and love went on plight.

                      The blackish silhouette to pry
                           through the thin clouds on low height.
                       Nocturnal owl made a shrill cry,
                             alarming me to watch the sight.

                        Mesmerized eyes in vain to try
                            to see light and shade, wrong or right!
                        Moon light! Silhouette! To descry.
                               Misty silhouette! Moon looks bright.
