Sun and Moon

I have been out with the bright sun,

among the sensible people

of the work-a-day world

where everyone has lists and suits and goals.

Click-clack go fast footsteps

of women with their souls

Squeezed into high heels,

their essences

listed in descending order of importance.

But as the moon rises

and empties the sky of light,

I shed the concerns

of that left-brained world.

In the darkness

I am the dawdler by the bridge

dipping my fingers in cool, inky ripples of time.

My essence defies listing, definition,

jumps off the note pad

and dances seductively,

scandalously,

uproariously!

I lose myself

in deep night sky,

yet Moon’s cool, silver light

will guide me back

from outer-most edges of

imagination.
