We have lived through many moons,
quarter, half-moon, full moon, dark,
month after month,
season after season,
years come and years gone,
spilling and filling,
over and again
the cup of borrowed light
that is our life,
spiraling toward a final fullness,
journey of completion,
dancing toward the winter moon.
