Moon And Shadow

the sun and moon have passed to leave the dark before the dawn the silence of the night obscures my shadow now withdrawn the starless sky may know what hides within the tapestry where east to west descends but all I see is memory the green of spring is lost the passion of the rising sun the heat of summer spent that seemed to end as it begun the passing of the seasons relentless as the falling leaves will find the soul of winter and places where a shadow grieves the setting moon bequeaths a blind and endless void of black a shadow lost in space that passing time cannot bring back
