Night Wanderers

Two companions traverse the night sky. (from "Kirya and Nero")

The first of many poems from my sci-fi drama, "Kirya and Nero" 

The Moon and I have traveled
From places long unknown
Through stories since unraveled
On our forgotten quest

The Moon and I are shadows
Silent and unseen
And where’er we chance to wander
We cannot be suppressed

But soon the blackness fades
From pitch to keenest blue
And when the Night succumbs to Day
The Moon and I will rest
