| | Last night . . .
we saw the waxing crescent in the sky.
Hearts beat faster,
because the door is open,
the window is just our size,
and the moon boat is at the shore.
And we know it!
Yes, tonight will be a sweet night and we will embark upon a holy journey.
So we climbed the mountain in the nearly dark.
We sought the path through the trees and brush.
With step on step we pushed the earth farther and farther beneath us until we reached the upper shore,
and lay at the brink of the sea, warm in each others arms.
Two
One
Alone
Above
In Light
In Love
In sacred Night,
Surrounded by
our scintillant smiling,
silently singing
brother-parent-sisters,
We sailed the swarthy sea.
Close eyes open
Union in a star
Up in the islands,
Upon tall mountains we rested our winged craft,
One and then another visiting;
Far and near in space and time
we saw the history of our Love as one long ineffable gaze into our . . . .
And, too, aloft on each high hill
I asked her to be my companion forever.
I loved you then,
You loved me too.
E’en before we were,
We knew.
Walk with me, dear,
Know and be known.
I always have,
I always will.
They will see us waving from such great heights.
And now we drew a circle,
and set inside, we made a picture so that maybe some others would understand at least a little of where we’ve been and what we’ve seen and what in the . . .
Well, any way, we will wear it on her finger.
Having returned eventually to our own shore,
we have
come down now
in some ways,
But we have also decided to live there forever.
Such is the magic of the moon boat.
That much of the song is sung;
the rest is cherished with unarmed all embracing joy.
