A Dream Castle
The castle dreams of a moon
that will wax and never wane.
And the moon dreams of the casements
that open and will not close again.
On one such night the castle will cast no shadow.
The shimmering silhouette will draw the moon
and hold it captive in the sky.
The organ will sing a maidens song,
and the moon will cross the abyss and sink
in the night's arboreal arms.
