sister moon
-------------------------------------------------

i
paused
for a moment
when i arrived home
and admired the half moon

she was brilliant
casting strong moon shadows
while a few persistent clouds drifted nearby

one or two stars attempted to outsparkle her
but without success

the air was warm and humid
heavy on my face
as i looked
up

she is shining down
on all of us
tonight
