Curtain

Pale opaque curtains

Stretched across distant stars

Moon plays hide and seek

Pillowed

White light streaming down

Pillowed in velvet blanket

Plucking at heartstrings

Awaiting

Sunlight fading fast
Awaiting Winter Solstice
Dance in moon shadows

Nap Time

Afternoon nap time
Rested eyes seen in mirror
Moon rises early

Winter's Mist

Walk in winter's mist
Moon peeks from low hanging clouds
Sweet muffled silence

Our Star

To act not react
Journeying to our own star
Maybe to the moon

Fighting Depression

Fighting depression
Wonder if anyone cares
Sun rises, moon sets

Early Twilight

Time for cleansing tears
Nearest faraway object
Early twilight's glow

Silver Moon

Silver moon glows red
Gorgeous natural color
Resources spread thin

Night time

Stand in wind's presence
Night time lover's soft caress
Watching wheel of cheese

Winter Energy

Winter energy
Frost art covered window panes
Shadows of the moon

Loner

A Western loner
Extraordinary myth
Moon lights up the night

All in All

Shouting at the sun
Singing as the moon rises
All in all, good day.

Masks

Hide behind a mask?
Safety above everything.
Moon hides in plain sight

Cold Moon

Winter full cold moon
Traversing high in the sky
Full life memory

Solemn Pledge

A solemn pledge
A soft moon in the pale sky
Are fulfilled in time

At Eventide

Peace at eventide
An eternal solitude
Mirrored in the moon

Early Moonrise

An early moonrise
Pale against the setting sun
Each shines in its time

Nature Enters

Nature enters here
Delivering a new gift
Tiny but growing

Moon in daylight

Moon seen in daylight
Peeking around Springs bloomings
Authors search for words
