Keeping Time By the Moon

Full moon
Fuzzy midnight velvet sky
Soft carpet of dew damp grass under my bare feet
and I dance.

Golden moon
Marks a month since we walked together
with a glowing wide-eyed magic moon mother watching over
and we kissed.

Full moon
And wolves howl haunting
empty sounding like my heart as I look back over time for you
and I cry.

Golden moon
Can it really make us all so crazy?
To shove aside caution with both hands and embrace the liminal moments?
I have to wonder.

Full moon
I went outside alone tonight
And looked up into the sky and the goddess of us all one month after you
and I danced.
