Full moon
A cool breeze blew softly
in the silence of the night
A sliver moon grinned down
a murky haze of light
Just a single twinkling star
pierced the black sheet of the sky
which covered the earth so quickly
and silenced it’s gentle cry
Suddenly I heard a rustling
A gentle, beating sound
as I lifted my eyes to heaven
I was heartened at what I found
My soul was there above me
it had grown wings and taken flight
it was finding its own freedom
in the gentle depths of night
Fly my soul, be free
find peace in that other realm
for you will have to return to the cage of my body
when that smiling moon goes down
You will have to return to these reads hard trodden
when that vestal orb goes down
