Moonset

Its majestic presence in the western sky
beckons the new day to pursue it.


The flame of its yellow glow warms me in the cool pre-autumn air,

as it presses against the the pale blue canvas of the dawn.


The purple sliver of night is in the distance

as the moon chases the darkness away.

Sweet slumber of the masses,
and dreams sprinkled by the stars
are gathered in the moon's embrace...

As the magical golden dream catcher disappears over the horizon.

Image and writing do not do justice to the image etched in my mind.
