THIS RAIN MOON
Soon the moon
will be full again, that
Snow Moon as
northerners call it,
large &
white, beaming behind
the clouds of
our rainy
season, perhaps
to
once more rain
all
the silent
& dark
night
MEDITATING
‘NEATH THE
ECLIPSING
FLOWER MOON
In the full
moon’s
light, I
meditate
opening a
door
to another
realm
where my mind
will
wander to
insights
I will not
remember
~
& with
a start
I awaken to
the Flower
Moon
eclipsing,
turning
to russet
rose
red,
zinnia-orange
~ ~
I try to
focus
my camera’s
eye
on its
visage …
~ ~
~
Only to be
beckoned to
the door
I left ajar
to enter
once more
to that
other realm
~ ~
~ ~
& all
night ‘neath
that
eclipsing moon’s
presence I
wander
~ ~
~ ~ ~
Only not to
remember
nary
a thought
when
I awaken to
a pouring
pre-
dawn rain …
& that door
a-slamming shut …
SEARCHING FOR THE LIGHT
Thunder Moon
hidden behind clouds
thick &
scuttling, wavering shrouds
Will they ravel
this night,
shedding light
below, upon crowds
of no-one,
world’s silence aloud,
searching for the lune’s light
AUTUMN NIGHTS
Waning Harvest
Moon rising
in this velvet
night,
disappearing …
reborning …
splendid Hunter’s Moon
