Mid-Autumn Thoughts 3
Mid-autumn lights with silver glow;
A sacred night to feel life's flow.
The placid lake seems so forlorn;
Love breaks or makes sad songs, sad dawns.
Here, I sit still -- I gaze, I look
Far beyond chill... a faded book.
Here, vastness fills the deep, dark night
With ancient will: gaze of moonlight.
Chance has conspired to take me here;
Yet, uninspired this moonlit sphere.
The moment sums our present glow;
Fate dams outcome in page that shows.
Mid-autumn moods flavour tea song;
In simple good that loiters strong.
With poets of old, I sit and stare:
Watch moon unfold wise ancient wares.
Moonlight magic inspires my lines;
Surge dynamic feelings sublime.
