Blog of the Day - June 24, 2005

My writing assignment for today: Write about what you see by starlight. Feel free to join in!

By starlight
the moon spreads
her gossamer net
taking captive
hill, dale and stream
forest deep
andopen field

By starlight
dreary tenements
translate into
dusky streets
taut with mystery
and excitement

By starlight
houses ruined by daylight
become ensorcelled
enigmas
oracles of the unknown

By starlight
the debris of living
is transformed
into a Chinese puzzle
of night.
