October Night at the Lake
Look how the moon in roundness ripe does shine,
arrayed in tints of fire and sky tonight
as if costumed by unseen hand divine,
while silvering the water with its light.
The wavelets gently kiss the sleeping shore,
all unaware of winter's coming breath,
their ripples stilled, but spring will soon restore
them from their frozen, temporary death.
So kiss me now, before we too are stilled,
a blink and all we have could disappear.
Then love, a fragile promise unfulfilled,
is nothing but a tarnished souvenir.
The time is now to live and celebrate,
a heartbeat missed and it will be too late.

The full moon illuminates Lake Superior's calm mirror of water on an October night in rural Minnesota. Reimagined and painted from a photograph by my nephew, Brian Coppola.

A gorgeous painting. I love the lighting in this. Your poem contains much wisdom as well. Live life while we have it. It is fleeting. :o)

Water and sky interact beautifully together in this intriguingly flowing work, RC.
