Our emotions are full
when the moon is high.
Ripe am I
in your heart and mind.
Over the fields,
the arms of the trees,
sleeping and dreaming.
The northern skies
believe in southern breeze.
The breeze weaves and
weaves
around our bodies entwined,
but separate and solo.
Midnight is right,
the light between leaves.
You’ve awoke in the morning.
Your feelings,
so many of them
underneath the bright moon,
now clear in daylight,
together and simple.
And this is why I cast
dark pearly eyes to the sky
when you are sleeping.
