A boat

     Adrift

          Aglow

Afloat

Upon the celestial tapestry 

Above the white crests

That occlude the clear

          Ocean of Night

 

Its falcate frame

Illuminates the silent sky

Casting its pearlescent glow

Into the depths of the

          Ocean of night

 

So gently it drifts, sinking

Beneath the chalky waves

Its luster, barely preserved

A sliver of light

          In the ocean of 

Night.

Looking at the moon drift in and out of the clouds.
