Pulled in by waves of light when
The fields begin to steam like horses
In the cool
Like the hush of rainfall
After the sun’s marriage to the skies.
From his window, the child can see;
The young moon sulking behind the sun,
Disappearing beneath the moors
With a final sweep of chill.
An actress on stage
Applauded by the throng
One last time,
Only to return again next night
From where it grows to fullness,
A round milky globe
Asking the question:
Who will admire me next?
