Full Moon

Moonlit starry night, visions in shadows, silver streaked beams slip naked through the night, capturing dust in thin streaks of moonlight, bring moon rays to light treeless meadows. Leaves in iridescent night clothes become painted luster in an unfocused haze, dancing, dancing upon the edge of leaves in quiet stillness of an airless night. A brilliant luminescent atmosphere, night primeval in the fullness of light. Space lightly seasoned with delicate stars. The moon orbits a panoramic sky, prowling along it's predetermined flight, moored, locked in it's traced path, pulling, flowing. Native earth gave birth to this alien, this piece of earth, malleable, reflecting. Owls of the night preying with delight. Coyote howls, wolves bay and growl. Rays bend shadows in mid-night moon light maze. Tides ebb and flow with the moon's changing face; nightwalkers jog, sprinting from hole to hole.
