Spend Hours With The Moon

Spend Hours With The Moon

pen and ink on Yupo

10 x 13 inches (with a border for ease of framing)

This item is unmounted and unframed

I wake and spend

the last hours

of darkness

with no one

but the moon.

She listens

to my complaints

like the good

companion she is

and comforts me surely

with her light.

But she, like everyone,

has her own life.

So finally I understand

that she has turned away,

is no longer listening.

She wants me

to refold myself

into my own life.

And, bending close,

as we all dream of doing,

she rows with her white arms

through the dark water

which she adores. - MARY OLIVER
