a golden afternoon
all in a golden afternoon
under the skies of cloudless blue,
i search that azure for the moon,
hoping it shows before its due
when day and night meet like a rhyme,
the lunar white and solar bright,
their faces shown at the same time
and bathing me in stellar light
i crave the simultaneous,
the line between the day and eve;
i crave between the noon and dusk,
i crave the visions it brings me.
