New Moon-original poem by Kaelin Kehm

No light from

The moon

In sight

Within the

Midnight ocean

That is the sky

A sea of darkness

Yet with waves of

Orange and blue
As twilight
Begins.

Its the new moon-
A midnight magic

That creates the

Midnight ocean

of our sky-

Yet,
Even though the moon
Has melted into the

Night sky-

I still see its

Reflection,
An outline,

Mighty and

Strong.
A sense that
Even in darkness

The sky still

Glows with color-

That is still enough

To illuminate

The quiet,

Desert, landscape.
