It is light outside my
closed eyes
It is light mid the
midnight
She sings a siren song
louder still now against
the snow
not absorbed by the flat
white
but reflected
bounced
and pounced
like a self absorbed cat
heedless of my need for
sleep
she calls
my sister moon
my lunar daughter
begs me awake
to admire her
lumosity
her sensuous embrace
her winter kiss
I have never in the day
loved and known such lure
as the blue sylvian
glide that draws
me in this deep night
as the curved silver
lunar girl
my sister moon
My fragile soul was born
from her light
my thin heart
a paper copy
crumpled reflection
Some nights she seeks
me on my pillow
her eye cast on my dark
head
her smooth hand brushes
my slumbering cheek
and curls inside my flesh
I cannot sleep
we must speak
the silence of the night
she brings me
with no fear
she shows me only now
only breathe
and my interlaced stacked
up
mess of life and
obligation
untwists in the shadows
of winter twigs on azure
pillows of frost and ice
Untwist
Uncurl
My breath craves the
enchanted allure of wet
damp air
the healing of breathing
moon drenched
midnight breaths
fill my lungs with trust
to
catch and hold aloft my
dreams
