On a Lustful June 'Yester-Night'

June night…
Gibbous moonlight…
My inner pearl shining bright;

Dwarfed under reflection,
Yet un-shadowed—beaming…
Waiting her coming resurrection
Above the lunar mirrored gleaming.

Passing strange is her journey…
A June timed sojourn to destiny,
Teasing the moon’s cosmic majesty;

Tonight, we conquer the abyss between us:
Space, stars, satellites, or any other celestial stuff;
Nothing can keep me from the pearly glow of Venus.
