Under The August Moon


Under the August Moon

Every moment lingers
like a butterfly flitting
at the edge of my sight;


in the stillness of a hot day
I remember a breeze
that kissed my cheek;

a bird softly singing
in the distance
soothes my soul;

sunset sends a wash of color
turning into darkness;

I lie awake.

Somewhere under the August moon,
you sleep.

July

July

languid moon mirrors
waves melting time together
feral eyes glaring
