*A Little Bloom of Moonlight
By
Jude Kyrie
Within the pristine stillness
Lies the soft velvet of night.
A sad moon peers down
Knowing all that has been.
A night bird sings his song
Softly with the pathos
Of a thousand years
Trees silhouette
in the moonlight
Reaching to the night sky
From their rooted life.
In the hedgerow
a white abundance
of tangled clematis
shine under its light.
The night world blooms
As the dust of sleep falls
into children's eyes.*
