A Silver Moon
by denny bastian 2012
A silver moon
a dark cloudless sky
the echoing croon
of a night birds cry.
A street lamp lit
they stroll on past
below a bats flit
its shadow is cast.
A fragrance so sweet
of new lilac and rose
a moment too fleet
of fragrance to nose.
Young lovers slow amble
through city park
two hearts to gamble
their love in the dark.
The celestial moon
is witness to pleasure
of a kiss stolen soon
a moment they treasure.
Late in the fall
lovers proudly return
a child in arm; a
fond recall
of a silver moon's sojourn.
Touching picture, Denny.
