Glistens the bones in moonlight Ones within the one outside Has no answer the fairy night Why bones’ glare the dog can’t hide!
The one outside is the dried up bone Marrowless yellow hard as stone Yet for jaws a hope in sight If chewing its dews makes warmly night!
Like bone is hard infallible trust In breath of death till last breaths last Can bring from brink a pale moon bone A whiff of life hope’s seed re-sown!
Skinny shadows pray to the night To make them bone from moonlight Just one yellowed for a dreamy ride In crumbling bones breaking inside!
