Full moon
Rising silver
Amid the stars,
A winter sky.

The moon
Untouchable.

Pervading slumber,
Languor
Beneath warm blankets,
Softness of feathers,
Linen scented lavender.

Sinking,
Deeply
Sinking.

Comes now
The sapphire dreams,
The adornments
Of longing.

The full moon waning,
Huge and golden,
Soft light beckoning,
Seen through heavy lashes.

Closer,
Even now,
So far

Wishes in the dark,
Waiting
In the winter silence.
