“I was ashamed of myself when I realized life was a costume party; and I attended with my real face.” ~Franz Kafka


How rare thee moon, so clear !

Mistress, thy seek.

Who shall be this celestial sphere,

In your prelude of cloudy oblique!

 

Above the midnight,

Near jade palaces.


Graceful swan swoon,

Towards the mistress in silk robes.

Prelude to the melody of the moon,

At last ! I found thee who enrobes!


The author's comments:

The moon symbolizes nature, it’s blind and it’s driven forces, the passing and return of its seasons.
