The Journey to the West

Though we journey to the West We pray to the East More or less that's the way Each day begins and ends It’s a tale everyone ...

Venus Astride the Crescent Moon

-->
for Marissa

This month
I’ve learned
To pay better heed
To influences deeply felt
But unseen

Like Venus
Hanging astride the
Luminous crescent moon
That I pointed out last night
As we were driving home

And you
Unable to take your
Eyes from the road
Said that too
Could be part
Of a wonderful poem

And now
Our souls waxing
And gibbous
We must get ready
For a most extraordinary
New moon
