O Moon of My Memory

O Moon of My Memory O new moon of my day-time sky Reflection of earthshine Craters and mountains Vague images floating Reminding of days gone by O waxing moon of my memory Graceful and slender Teasing and flirting Uncertain faces Shadows are being Pushed slowly away O gibbous moon of my memory Gathering sunlight Expanding horizons Details exposed Features revealed Images clearing O full moon of my memory Shining so brightly Glorious detail Craters and mountains Laser precision Easy recall O gibbous moon of my memory Sliver of ebony Creeping across Freezing my heart Pulse pounding In a cloak of obscurity O waning moon of my memory Darkness descending … enveloping Shielding my view Concealing my life O new moon of my day-time sky Twinkling of star light Alone in the void Dimmed to my sight O great moon of my memory Paschal moon of my soul Orange orb of the harvest Blue moon of my life O fickle moon of my memory Return to me once more Before I bid my final farewell
