Moon Musings

beautiful new moon
you are a welcome face
at my window.

you greet me always with a consistent serenity
pure of face and,
should you have one,
heart.

(though perhaps suggesting you have such a mercurial organ is a defilement to your etherial and constant nature)

oh to be as sure in my body as you are in yours.
whether bold
    round shape. 
or
coquettish
    curved crescent.

teach me your ways, 
for though the night cloaks so many of my fears,
     the sun
                reveals
                           each morning
                                                 what i can no longer hide from.
