The Moon was so full tonight
The moon was so full tonight
the waves
rolled over laughing.
They're in cahoots .
as soon as the sky
runs out of blue
the waves call
the moon over and
raise up thier skirts
for a wild night.
After they quiet down
a glistening white stripe
appears on the wet sand.
Listen: after the tide slip out
a drunken chorus arises.
When everything is spent
a love song remains.
They are singing
a sweet song about you.
They all love you.
Like the rest of us
They'd do anything
to bring your radiance
a little closer.
Ellen O'Brian
