Poems and Prose #62 - Aloof

A new moon hangs
   beneath the clouds,
shielding starlight
   from the ground.

I find my pupils
   large and round,
and but for echoes,
   there's no sound.

Traipsing on a
   moss-draped mound,
seeking stuff
   that might astound,

My focus shifts
   from up to down,
that black disc
   my lantern now.
