A Meeting With Moonlight

Curious rays of light
Peek in through the window,
Where soft grey curtains hang,
Partially open; though

With their gentle fingers
They lift the long folds back,
Inquisitive, cautious,
To offer bright to black.

But lo! A sleeping face
In the brilliance stirs.
Blue eyes flutter open;
The moonlight's gaze meets hers.

Enchanted by those eyes,
The rays pause silently,
But soon their contact breaks
And to outside they flee.

With this the room returns
To darkness in the night.
Gone, swiftly as it came,
This meeting with moonlight.
