Under the Moon

Under the Moon

Many people talk about
being “over the moon”
about something
that makes them happy.

The other evening as I worked,
my eye caught sight
of the rising moon’s
magnificent shimmer on the sea,
and I stepped outside
and stood as motionless as possible
in the silence
to attempt to capture this moment.
I was under the moon,
with joy.
