Sagittarius Full Moon

Sagittarius Full Moon

The many faces of the Moon
reflecting starlight in her many moods
entrance the sky.
My mortal eyes want to believe
adventures, mythologies, romantic rhymes .
Tell me, hoary elders,
rejuvenated for your fling
in sacred moonlight,
dancing from your ivied castles
to mystic mountain
legendary glades,
tell me why I should believe
in magic of codes and
spells and sacrifice.
Is the wisdom of the ages
so constrained?
My species may be blind to
true eternity,
but we mutate,
find and define
new ways to see.
Fixed belief is far too limiting
for me.
Dear Sister Moon, separate entity
from birth, entwined destiny
with Mother Earth,
patterns re-cycling reveal
what we regard to be real
is but reflection.
Face to face to face, fluid

to change.
