the moon rises full
as jupiter pierces the sky
when I reach the banks
the moon has already broken free
but the river holds
the light
stretches it long and
rippled
broken lines of light
disappearing into the far dark shore
pelicans glide across the river's moon
set all the tips aflame
till the current calms them
quiets the moonlight
rocking gently
as you rock your little one
