Equinox Afloat

the ocean deep it's blue and green
rippling waves above unseen
beings living underneath
some with fins and some with teeth...

the sky is clear, no clouds in sight
Moon up high, left from the night
the ferry rolls as it plows on
through the sea, its liquid song

splashing in the waves around
as to the island we are bound
as September dreams of autumn days
keep drifting into where we gaze...

summer leaves, it slips away
with equal night and equal day
as Earth spins and twirls around
these are moments that astound

and resonate with something deep
where mesmerized we fell asleep
as rippling waves expand now from
behind it all where we belong

while under sky no clouds in sight
Moon above left from the night
through the sea's soft liquid song
the ferry rolls as it plows on
