Becky: For Cal

FOR CAL

full Moon in the heavens tonight,
bright, bright as Daylight

soft orange glow marks a ring
standing in the shadows

No sounds save for crickets and frogs
Dogs at my side, cat in my arms

standing , listening , watching
a bright streak across the sky

another soldier's soul gone home tonight
standing, watching , listening

soft breeze across my cheek
looking to the sky, looking to see

Across the full Western Moon
a Shadow, a Shadow crosses in front

Across the Full Eastern Moon,
a Shadow, a Shadow cross in front

In the East the Night Owl on the fly
In the West the Night Eagle on the Fly

Spirits in the full moon night sky
Spirits , Spirits of brothers

A full moon in the night sky
