Curiosity found me hurriedly pulling on clothes
left lying on the floor,
nature’s subtle vibration having touched my face
as I lay sleeping,
it’s soft tapping against my closed eyes, a morse code
enticing me to wake…
to follow the light leaking through the blinds
onto the balcony in the quiet hours before dawn,
with fog rising slowly from the still forest,
looking up, hardly breathing
as the clouds, like pale velvet curtains slowly parting
reveal the rare, luminous moon
ushering it onto the stage of the dark and starry sky
allowing me for a moment to step outside
of the shape-shifting slipstream that is the world
and simply be.

The super moon was as bright as this glass sculpture (Laguna Torcello, 2012) at the Chihuly exhibit in the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM) in downtown Toronto.
Kim, this is poem shines with brilliance. An imagery to behold. Such wonderful poetry that flows with true emotions.

The words came to me in the early hours this morning, I wanted to capture how I felt when I sleepily made my way out to the balcony to see the super moon rising above English Bay. Thank you for your wonderful words!
