Step quietly, step quietly,
tread lighter still,
do not wake her,
with footprints shrill.
Step forth, step forth,
with thistledown toes,
footfall snow,
so nobody knows.
And when you are gone,
they will say,
and what of that girl,
did she pass this way?

The moon and I,
we are like that –
She said…
crossing her fingers,
behind her back.
The sun and I,
I cannot lie…
We crossed our paths
behind a cloud,
his face does hide.
The world and I,
we are as one,
soul mates and lovers,
a trilogy –
with the moon and sun.

The moon and the vine.
I show the shadows of your life;
you grow, and you smother.
I hide, my shadows cover
what I ought to be.
Do you not see the chill of my light,
reality shown cold and bright?
Tranquillity is my solace,
loneliness my best friend.
Leave me to counsel the stars,
and I will leave you to clothe the earth.
