Moonlight's Shadow

from the ABC set Lovers, Liars and Just Good Friends.

No moon in night's sky,
clouds or simply invisible?
Is there still moonlight?

Wait for a cloudless
night, wait for the next waxing:
never gone, just hidden.

Hope the moon returns,
for without its silver light
the stars mean nothing.

'..ive looked at clouds from both sides now..' Sweet poem reminded me Patience goes well with Hope, especially in England :)

beautiful last stanza, sad but beautiful.
