lunaSea

Today's poem is lunaSea by Amie McGraham. It is read by Arisa White.

lunaSea

how could I know
that the Moon holds ten seas—
or two lakes, one of Sleep,
and the other, of Dreams?

or a Bay full of Rainbows
or Vapor; the breeze?

the first human footprint, that vast giant leap
on solidified lava
(secrets run deep)

Sea of Serenity, Ocean of Storms
remote aspirations; ethereal forms

when I peer past the shadow
where light intercedes
the darkest, unbounded—
Tranquility Sea
