Sky Glow
It’s a warm and surreally serene night.
A great milky wheel of stars
rises wet and shivering from the waves
at midnight’s horizon,
and the silver pale light of a gibbous moon
settles on the sea
glistening its tinsel-crested heaving bosom.
Moonlight rushes with
every rolling wave to the shore
as if the light itself was pulling the waves;
The moon had cast
the great net of silver light
and gathered up the whole sea
to haul it to the shore
wave by wave.
