cast by winter's moon,
strike sharp outlines
on bright snow crust.
As moon travels westward,
moon shadows
grow eastward,
lengthening toward dawn.
On this night walk
through winter woods,
I listen...
for voices in the stars.

Dad, I wish I could have joined you on this fine Moonlight Walk. Thanks for inviting me on so many when I was a child. Ben and I took our first "Full Moon Walk" together last week. It was beautiful. But I love moonlight even more when it sparkles upon snow.
