The Moon Poem by John Tristan Tench

The Moon



The moon sways on the axes of our dreams,
Lighting the night only so much.
So much for night's beasts to folic;
So much that we may hide from them;
So much, that we may compose poems
Under the wisdom of its light;
So much, finally, that we may
Ask for the sun by day.
Only, so much.
