I know an abyss is
between you and me
seas and oceans billow
the overlooking moon
is untouched like it was before.
I know drifting off onto
a moonlight polished pillow
is not everyone's lucky go.
But not that never
once or more
did a star one or two
among the zillions
across your lunar brow
peeped in my dream
sweetening my nap.
But I know no sleep never
can made me forgot
my only moon-dew firefly glows
tuberoses shine by my windows!
