I am the moon

round

distant

cold light

reflecting the sun’s warmth

back to a blue planet

a lover’s smile

forever light years away

black space

gravity pulling

tidal waves of emotion

forever love

on shores of childhood dreams.

I am the moon

pale maiden in the morning sky

large orange crone at dusk.

Alone

I ignite the dark

for moonlight kisses.
