The moon feels my lonliness tonight,
She reveals herself,
Hermetically holds me,
Embraces a frigid nightfall.

The moon is yellow,
Pale as a geriatric soul,
Tacit as an unborn cocoon,
Yet vibrant as a rippled sun.

The moon turns white,
So do I,
As my body drifts ashore,
Peacefully Into the vast unknown.

We are one,
The moon and I,
Woven into the sky,
Governors of the stars.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM

This poem was inspired waking along Lake Superior. I felt lonely. I felt empty. Yet I spent the day with my son. The evening with a crowd. Yet I felt such heartfelt pain with nobody to hug and hold. The moon was there. Pretty and yellow. And so I wrote April 8th,2023 dedicated to the forlorn and solitary folk.
