Moon like an opal
hanging from a coral thread
veiled by fairy clouds.

Sun gives it all up
for lavender and yellow;
tree launches the moon.

Moon blazes a trail
through the cottage cheesy clouds
waxes victory.

Moon,
like a giant lily
floats in bloom
on the surface of night.
It is then we remember
that without Sun
we’d never know Luna
except for the tides
rising in our breasts.

.When she called his name
to the north wind
it roared
through the trees
and made her winter green.
.
When she called his name
to the mountainside
it rose
up the ridge
like a fever.
.
When she called his name
to the racing sky
it echoed
like a dozen geese
searching for a season.
.
When she called his name
to the ocean
it churned
to salt butter
on her toast.
.
When she called his name
to a sliver of moon
it hung like a lamp
on the dark side
of doubt
and this time she knew
that he heard.

Wax the stars, old moon –
hone your path across the sky,
peel away the night.
