Early morning
Lucky ones still cozy in their bedding
Moon in west bright and beautiful
travelled all night just to cover the distance
From eastern front to my back yard
Its silvery light filtering through trees
The spread of light and shadows
Soft as silk upon cold grass
I took few steps barefoot
Soft grass and cold earth tickled my feet
Short evenings and long nights
Fall is here
Night creatures have stopped screaming
An unfamiliar sound travels from a distant
Could it be frogs croaking....... I doubt.....
Moon is descending behind tall oaks
The grass, the fence the grapevine
all turning dark...trees look mysterious
Tonight will be super moon lunar eclipse
Moon wanders around my house
In endless cycles
Like life going through a new phase
In different times at different place
Stars follow its queen in celestial abode
Soon all will disappear in sunlight
Nature moves in cycles for eons
Life moves only one way for us
It rises to move downhill
Where moon descends and descends
But sun stops rising…….
