DAY 60 - MOONLIGHT ON WATER

 [60/365]


MOONLIGHT ON WATER

Scattered luminous reflection,
anchored by slender, sparkling bands,
shimmery bridge to the shore.
Overextended and overexposed,
infinity where sky meets land,
the moon's lustrous glow fueled
by the glossy tangle of stars
crowding the heavens.

The light dims and moody clouds come,
bathing the night in dusky chiaroscuro,
obliterating the gleaming moon-path.
Darkness mingles with muted shadows,
silent and mysterious.
Light and dark fall unevenly
linger raw and intense,
beautiful enough to hurt.
