By Brenda Mox

As fortune passed its meridian,
the moon shut herself
within her chamber,
girdling the great hill hollow
where greenness grew
over brown beds
rich in verdure shadows,
giving force and fixedness
to new impressions.

From a cerulean sky
uniformly clear of clouds
or evil feeling,
the sun drank dew drops
from light illumined orchard trees
while early morning stillness
slumbered everywhere.
