Moonlight

poem in Coriambo rhythm (long-short-short-long)

by Ruth Salles

Coriambo: ___vv___ (long-short-short-long). The child lets go, then withdraws longer for a transformation, finally lets go again to act outside.

MOONLIGHT

Perare youbri
– no Isee yougar –
that's when i saw
light coming in.
out I left,
I went to spy:
warm light
shines in the air;
moon in the sky,
weaves the moonlight;
doesn't even stop
when spilling
so big well
in our home.
