83) Moonlit Reverie

Far-falling from a distant heaven,

A gentle radiance in the nightward sea

drifts down, pale and faded

reflections of a wayward glory.

The day, a dying memory,

Wanders in the shadows,

in gardens lulled with a phantom light.

A soft music drifts in eternity,

a song sung by crickets and nightbirds

who bear the burden of the murmured night.

Wingless yet the midnight seemed

a garden untouched by the gaze of any

but the silver divinity

that watches over the night.

A soft wind blows through

the pensive, dream-filled hours,

and moonlight flutters

like a windblown moth

between the shadows of the trees

and the creatures of the night.

They linger there

In lofty pallor shrouded,

in ivory song; a colder melody,

a crescent rune that bears

the invocation of sorceries

and hidden summonings,

magic folded in the blossoming

of a night-bloom:

a flower's moon-measured lullaby.
