1. God
2. Seeing the same moon Helen saw in Texas (imagine)
3. Smiling moon
4. The moon hidden in a blanket of cloud that was like a wedding train (or a shroud)
5. The moon comfortably wrapped as if in a blanket
6. or reclining in the cloud as though upon a sunlit beach
7. brighter than the sun we need more light at night
8. always ahead
9. spinning earth
10. gently gently away
Postscript:
“Why not become the one who lives
with a full moon in each eye
that is always saying,
with that sweet moon language,
what every other eye in this world
that is always saying,
with that sweet moon language,
what every other eye in this world
is dying to hear?”
Hafiz (via First Sip)
Nodding while I read your list, Garrett (with a nourishing exhale or two as well)…there is a cadence to your list that is so soothing…a remnant of the moon’s light…
