Menon, of the Moonlight

Cloud broke rank.

She peeped silvery white from behind the screen.

The dark disappeared.

And the world slept on…

 

A gush of wind -

And everything went black.

Little diamonds looking down

Searching out their loved ones,

But the world slept on…

 

Black trees swaying gently to the hoots of owls,

The night guard blew his whistle.

She waited for him to leave so She could come out again.

But who was to notice?

For the world slept on…

 

Cloud shifted position again,

And giggling, She stepped out.

“Ha-ha! Found you!”

Little Menon was in this game of hide-n-seek.

He always is.

The world is too mundane for him,

And he too insignificant for the world to care.

So he plays,

And the world sleeps on…
