Sun and Moon
Whilst in the light of the moon,
I open my notebook of poems
I've written, gaze at the heavens
and all of its harmonious planets and stars.
Whilst my mind wonders,
how can I put into rhyming
and romantic words
how pleasing the aureate sun
is against cerulean sky,
its clouds that sail across.
Musing of earthen colors
that make up the earth that turns
as does the changing seasons;
the snow-capped mountains,
lush forest, and seeds taking root,
stimulating waterfalls cascading down
into the depths of streams
and rivers towards the ocean.
I become filled with wonder
at the sand dunes
that move across the ground in wind,
the complementing blazing hot sun
painting the skies a tangerine-lavender
while melting over the corners of the horizon.
Tantalizing is the turquoise ocean's
and life in its briny water,
whilst waves walk back up to its shores,
warblers sing and spread its wings
and fly across the sky.
Enthralled by sensation of nostalgic moon,
swept away in love upon the sun rises.
