Dancing Moon

              I
            See
         Here
        Upon
      A night
     A Sliver
    A cut aloft
   In the dark
   Smiling wide
   though a girl.
    Sweet reflection
     Shining upon the
      water like a torch,
        distant mirror above.
           The sun is present even in death
                The moon preserves.
                      Gentle light

                           
Atop a gentle wave, light graces the soul of the water, breaking, ever breaking. Reflections 
are sped out, sending their message to creatures below, to life out beyond its reach. As a 
magnet the oceans are pulled, to and fro, ever slowly, ever dancing in the great ocean.
