There’s a full moon
The sky looks blue, instead of black.
There’s barking in the distance.
Dogs? Coyotes? Foxes? Wolves?
In a forest,
It’s most likely not domesticated animals.
The full moon is so bright,
There are shadows.
No need for a flash light.
No need for any lights.
The glow from the moon
Is brighter
Than the sun on a hazy day,
It’s a clear night,
Full of barking,
A full moon,
Stars,
A few stray white clouds,
And a light cool breeze.
According to the calendar,
Winter begins in three days.
There’s already been snow.
There are Christmas lights in town
In the forest,
The animals are calling out their greetings
To the new season.
