Water and Sky
Not very far above the rippled reverie,
lives the harvest moon bright and aglow-
Three stars gazing for the world to see,
while the tidal waves crash and flow.
The moon dust sprinkles and falls below,
catching sights of the bridged undertow.
The magic of the night stares into the abyss,
the constellations shine with hope and flair-
Aries and Taurus begin to romantically kiss,
and can't even see me lying there.
Am I the only one to see, the only to care?
As I gently wisp my lover's chestnut hair.
The night shall linger into morn's dew,
tomorrow shall bring a brand-new day-
Silent nights like this are found very few,
for I see Mother Nature in a whole new way.
Oh, I wish this harvest moon would stay,
and shine upon the rippled reverie...I pray.
