Waning Be This Moon

Waning Be This Moon


Wan be the day to highlight distress
sapping all energies of eagerness
Quiet howling is moving space
The candid spectre Time takes place

Cloak and dagger maiden fair
pierce the ages blithely where
the bride of night moonrise sighs
as vowing eternal evening eyes

Yet will eventide surely surcease
tepidly in begrudging release
silent in chagrin adorned
Skies of light and night are torn

Penchant then the darkness come
a portrait easily in victory won
like stoic rocks withstanding tides
against incessant sea sides' rise

Eerily come are the stars to play
yet faint in trepidation stay
The sage advice taken from day
to hold distant it's humble foray

Headlong falling diamond crescent
Agony seizing untimely descent
Horizons glimpse the mandarin rose
of what the holding future knows

So then... graceful call some sunlit voice
though faced away by fear of choice
Take and use what good from bad
'till waxing can again be had
