I expected something much darker from the Oracle this morning but she knows I’ve been watching the moon.
be full of this
always moon
never let dawn
fall through air unwalked
every path comes and leaves
between earthlight songs–
deep ancient nights rooted in following
the seasons of birdgrown afterdays
ask why and
if
Photos taken from midnight to this morning.

I felt the moon, even though I didn’t see her.
I love
“the seasons of birdgrown afterdays
ask why and
if”

We both end with birds. Like the moon, a beacon in the dark.

Your poem and Merril’s are similar, both moon-inspired, the heat dispersed, and possibly the calming, cooling influence of the moon will linger.

Fantastic photos to match The Oracle’s words, Kerfe! I tried to capture the wonderful yellow moon on Friday night, but my camera couldn’t do it justice…

here as good as any to alight. me, suppose I’m easily confused. so much to drink in even one post here. reminded of standing on my balcony, here, in summer now. don’t need flowers as every different green has a scent of their own. for me, almost so much I don’t stay long but leave. my nose seems sensitized. your images, your words, I’m on the balcony again. all green, all colors. is this what its like, to be in love?

I wasn’t thinking of love at all, but all are free to provide their own interpretations.
