THE MOONPOOL
|
|||
|
|
-
|
|||
|
|
It is a lazy, restful time
|
|||
|
|
here in the forest glade.
|
|||
|
|
The sun is departing, the stars arriving
|
|||
|
|
and the trees are a darkening jade.
|
|||
|
|
-
|
|||
|
|
An air of buzzing, drowsing stillness
|
|||
|
|
invades the meadow, lends weight to my head
|
|||
|
|
as I settle down - bedroll, backpack
|
|||
|
|
and strains of music are seemingly played.
|
|||
|
|
-
|
|||
|
|
A deep, cool, dark pool is here,
|
|||
|
|
mirror clear, reflections of skies,
|
|||
|
|
as peace fills my mind, my soul
|
|||
|
|
and sleep gently touches my eyes.
|
|||
|
|

|
|||
|
|
I know not whether I was awake, or in dream
|
|||
|
|
or how much time had passed,
|
|||
|
|
when I felt the magic of this place
|
|||
|
|
camped there, upon the grass.
|
|||
|
|
-
|
|||
|
|
No sounds - no crickets? (The Music!)
|
|||
|
|
As the Moon awakens the pool, so bright.
|
|||
|
|
Why this anticipation, premonition,
|
|||
|
|
this magical feeling, this ghost haunted night?
|
|||
|
|
-
|
|||
|
|
Then, a siamese cat enters the meadow-
|
|||
|
|
silver grey, regal compusure, flowing lines.
|
|||
|
|
And somehow I know - I see intelligence
|
|||
|
|
and wit, and power, as she looks into my eyes.
|
|||
|
|
-
|
|||
|
|
How does she speak without speaking?
|
|||
|
|
But somehow, she communicates good will, and cheer.
|
|||
|
|
'Stay quiet, childe of man.', she says.
|
|||
|
|
'Be still - you are but a guest here.'
