The Moon Rises



The moon rises and fills my soul

I watch for it, follow it,

Revel in its free nightly show



Over the water, behind a tree

A slow ascent, changing its hue

Cottony, golden, orange, bright white



It's diamond sparkle on the sea

Bids me goodnight as I admire it from my balcony

The moon rises and fills my soul.

Is still the moon risen?

Has it not yet appeared to descend from sky, giving way to the light of day?
