Crescents

 


We walk in the smile of the day,

feet touching down along its curve.
Songbirds and crickets,
turkey and deer -
all the usual inhabitants  -
move in the same grace

We revel in crescents  -
the arc of temperature,
the waxing moon,
the hammock of tenderness
we offer each other
during and after
the easy swing of the day's work.
