"moon?"

his mellow voice 
sang like the birds 
during sunrise.
velvety.
and soft.

my head angled
to his position.
a straightened
spine and in
cross-legged
position he
was perched.

he is looking outside.

asking for some
silent permission
to the moon above.
a permission i do
not know of.
he is good at
being silent.

of course,
it's his game 
after all.
