Blue Moon and Orb
Blue moon and light of night
Coupled together just in sight
As Spring breaks from winter
As the cold still splinters
Heavy the air of fog and ice
seasons change the moon came twice
Silently I sit and listen
to morning signs, and sky still glistens.

Hunter’s Moon
I stepped outside the squeaky door
the shower from the full moon explore
As I did I climbed on the wind
Hung on the star light and start to spin
The whirling of the dusty fog
Rose above my head and tug
When light and moon and rays delight
Brought a new and mystical light
To all the planets and stars burst out
The moon and wind poured like a spout
Of dust and sparklers and moon rays
I wanted to ride throughout their stay
But no, the wind died down too soon
And I was left back looking at the moon

Among the Stars
A Dream
white moons hang next to one another
bringing heaven’s presence and earthy observer
to notice…
Hanging like large bulbs lighting existence,
closer and closer they merge into one light
colliding …
looking across the way into the darkness
the moon dust falls light on a field of magnificent emerald
green elephants…
they move as though dancing without music,
gracefully they silhouette around the other
peacefully moving…
again I look upon the heavens and the moons
have separated again, white light emerging
toward the other…
cataclysmic they collide once again,
burst into a million stars
the heavens reflect…

Halloween
Witches and apples, fallen leaves and rot,
Has come to this the Hallow night of
full moon with goblins and steamy pots.
The shadows at dusk that pass among trees
of little costumes of scary ghost among
dressed up monsters of make believes…
An eve of frightening rituals
where all one’s fears are mimicked and mocked
with humor and timeless habituals.
So call on All Saints , who listen this night,
as the children grow tired from the cold dark streets,
and guard them home safely from the eve of fright.
