         Tonight

Tonight…
a summer moon
dances among the
roots of clouds
and endless
mountaintops,
(playing hide and seek
in a deep-ebony cloak
of star field splendor)
and rides the high wind
mirrored in midnight
splendor by  these
boundless crystal waters.  
Here there is no room
for human  ‘darkness’…
only tranquil thoughts,
finest hopes, and
gentle dreams of new
    and perfect love

              --- b. e. adams (7/10/2013)

Love seems to have crept back into your poetry, Bruce. THAT is a good thing

I tend to write (especially in this double-post-modern 'Runaway American Dream')
things as I believe they 'should be' rather than how they (typically?) are ... allowing
'reality' to be for those who lack imagination ...

So glad to hear that, Bruce. I have imagination and I'm not afraid to use it.

I am happy for you, Bruce, that "there is no room for human darkness."  I hope your dreams come true.  Beautiful poem as always.
