Midday Summer sun
In midnight Winter sky
Moonlight hangs heavy over these hills tonight
Ethereal silver mist dissolving all that's mundane
A fairy tale landscapes defining this dale
Unseen things flitter seen barely from eye
Their unknown trajectory
From some other side
Rich velvet shadows float darkly, no sound
Childhood exuberance echoes around
An ordinary room conducts taps and those cracks
Sparkling with something that's trying to get back
To what and to where ?
Its deviations abound
Like rain on my window
A familiar sound.
2014
Having just experienced a super moon and a lunar eclipse, I found my mind cast back to this poem I wrote a while ago. Ive tried to capture the magic that a moonlight night fills me with and exactly what it is about one in the valley where I live, that's just so special !
