She Greets the Night in Moonlit Robes ~ Tan Renga

.

She sheds moonlit robes.

Whispering grass ushers out

the iodine dusk.

A Barn Owl scans the meadow

under rush of morning breeze

long blades bow deeper

we walk a narrow pathway

inhaling the victory

We seek to establish an order to our minds, not the world around us.

amethyst petals

In the front room was a sharp aquamarine; the hall, a deep rose madder; where she ate, a brilliant cadmium lemon. She was only tempered by candle and silhouette on the amethyst curtains and walls.
