Thought

How beautiful the bright full moon

Whose landscape gently smiles at us

She only knows her mystic ways

Of hollows hills and deep valleys

When dark night’s dawn took bites and bit

Earth makes her gracious dance with it

Measured cycle comes and goes

Then round again the full moon glows

Nocturnal lamp from high above

Enchanting reflections on watery scene

Moves poets’ hearts and by her light

Distils mind’s rays for deep insight

Prayer

O Lord, in rhythmic cycles given for my eyes to bathe in, make my mind purer than the pure full moon let it ever rest in thee.
