Night River Moon

I wish I had video, to show the cloud movement. Despite being beautiful, this doesn’t do it justice.

On this cooling night,
I step out on the porch
to see the parking moon
and running clouds;
the moon a stone in the river of clouds,
the telephone pole just a tree by its banks;
the river slows and turns to lake
and my blood pressure stream
slows and slacks.
