A Lesson

The moon is low casually drifting t'ward earth time taken, peacefully reaching the end. Beyond the pines, he glimmers, politely through; a small beam beneath the flickers over head. He does not fear an end, neither does he complain Only lingers, quietly. Until he plays his part in the day; (casting shadows across the land) until tomorrow, as once again the universe calls upon him.

"After all this you still write poetry? What about? The world, love, particular people, how extraordinary it all is, what a gift it is to be alive in the world and know you’re alive." Yuri Zhivago, Boris Pasternak
