The Silver Pool Of Light

Full Moon night,

The moon hung over the horizon

Like a football so big, luminous,

Can I reach out to the moon and catch it?

Fascinated and enraptured 

By the beauty of the bright full moon,

I thought like a child in innocence.

I know I can't reach out to the moon

And capture it with my hands.

Dropping my childish thought,

I glimpsed at the full moon

With my curious eyes widened.

There on the ground, a pool

Of silver moonlight I found.

Can I step into the silver pool

Of light and have a bath 

In the pool of silver moonlight?

Why can't I? I can do it easily.

Here, I am stepping into the silver

Pool of moonlight and relishing

The beauty bath in the pool

Of the silver moonlight.
