FULL MOON

 

 

A dreadful night…

            The moon evokes fear.

How did these nestlings

            End up right here? 

The woods are so quiet –

            Every sound grows!

 

Eyes flicker,

            The fur of the coat glows.

I wish there was dew –

            To signal the day’s near.

The icon of night’s flame

            Suddenly sparks clear.
