Reflection

The calm surface of Silver Lake, reflects a golden harvest moon

              But how do I know
               what is lake and what is sky?
                If the world were upside down
                 the sky may be lake
                  and lake may be sky,......or do
                    my eyes see two harvest moons?.....

                       Yet...what should it matter to me ?
                       Twice the beauty is mine to pursue............
