850. Untitled - June 22, 2013
The moonlight is particularly bright
and clear this evening,
tracing a delicate line
down the plains,
casting soft shadows
and a wide penumbra.
A look outside wonders
if the sky is so moonlit
wherever you are,
whether you could see the same
crags and patterns
on the pale surface
reflecting the sunlight so brightly.
Or does it stand guard
through fluttering curtains,
carefully watching over;
a prayerful silence
that might have been described
as yearning
if moonlight could
have an expression.
