National Poetry Month 4/30

4.4.17


I wonder if the moon is lonely 

night watch woman 
guarding the sky 
recipient of prayers 
giver of energy 
mistress of tides 
what do we give her in return?

we take and take
then abandon her at dawn 
seldom mind her waning and waxing 
wait impatiently for her full return 

we watch in wonder 
      with nothing to offer
