Moonlight Waltz
Beneath the white power
of the moon, Stones rumble.
Laughing River waters answer,
Field Daisy bows to Meadow Rose.
Leafy arms grasp throaty vines
and the moonlight waltz begins.
Mister Elm directs with head bowed
and arms raised in ardent abandon.
Miss Willow sways. Skirts swirl
seductively, brushing her ankles,
stirring the moon-kissed air,
awaking the enchanted,
who join the dance
to celebrate freedom of the night.
Only the nocturnal
experience the joyful play
and learn the secret
of Nature's night-time symphony.
At the first hint of dawn,
music fades, movement stills,
creatures retreat into burrows
and slip into day-mode.
