Night On the River

Floating, floating, as the river wind,
  sweeps a chorus of autumn twigs.
Embarking in the early eve,
  I steer a light craft.
Rising, the moon rotates, 
   along the mountain peaks.
Flowing, the waters follow the whirling sky.
Are we on the Milky Way?
  Or, roving in a grove of fine clouds.
