Alighting on a Poem

The hedonistic moon

Covered my writing sense

Drained of all its wit

And petulance

 

If these poems rhymed in time

Let me change it so,

So that it sings

With mocking meaning

A depth we do not hold

 

Fixed on every cadence

Every effort right redundant

Hatched within my private dome

A gift with no reception

A song of love that has no home

 

May my meaning fall

On ears abundant

May these words shine

Like the Sun,

Glittering and bold

For I believe, in the light of every kind,

We all have the qualities of gold.
