All day

my mind was laden

with ancient rain

and heavy words

until now, as if being called

I lift my head

knowing all the time

you are there

bright as always

your sweetmoonsmell

in the crispy cold air

filling my garden--

a sudden bliss

I have only heard of

Wrapped in your moonsilence

I feel an unburdened

happiness, and

proudly so (I am learning

to say such words

without reservation

if only to myself

at moments like this)

I say it so many times

the words slowly

dissolve like a kiss

upon your night

Is this real?

I ask my drunken shadow

In what light

can I redress you

after this loverly moment?

MyLittleMoonSister

MyMoonHoeny

smiling at me

so late into

the night!
