'A Moment Under the Moon II' - Dave Atchinson


The ethereal, ever-flwoing, effervescent moment..
Turquoise waves, whipped to white foam

    Crash down upon gray and black stones

Weathered and aged

   Through those years that fled.

Depths of indigo sky hold aloft the pearlescent moon.

   The throaty roars and silken whispers of the sea,

And the feathered fingers of the wind caress me,

   Billowing around my lonely stone

That countless men and ages have known.

So here am I

   A passing phantom, or a sigh

Crying out before it all

   Hail and welcome.
