Poem Category: High Moon

high moon
the wind on a rope swing
over the river

high moon
fireflies flirting over
our neighbour’s pool

high moon
rock pools emerging
an ebb at a time

high moon
our talk of divorce
taken outside

high moon
on returning tides
the seeds of islands

high moon
another strawberry
Laurel’s tongue

high moon
in the ten thousand scents
exhaled by the earth

high moon
the railway tracks
leading to rust

high moon
the well water
too deep to raise

high moon
geese forsaking
their father lands
