Awaiting Mid-Autumn – New Moon

Updated: Jun 10, 2022

8th day of the 8th moon of the year of the Dragon. We start with the verses of the most unaccomplished – mine.

New Moon

The new moon enters Tentative Before her time

A slim curve of silver Hiding Behind yesterday’s flowers

Hesitant Unconscious of her charms
