Peekaboo Moon Playing Hiding Games
Moon Games
Copyright: October 13, 2007
The Harvest moon began its rise in dusk of eves sky;
An orb of soft colored gold, It arose big and bold.
As I made my way homeward it began to play hide "n" seek;
Slipping below a mountain ridge then rising for a peek.
Sliding below a mountain edge, then playing peek a boo;
along a tree-lined ridge. It laughed at me as it
shone above the span of a long covered bridge.
Finally, it sank out of sight behind a darkened knoll;
Until I saw its shining face reflected in a water rill.
Then slowly it arose to hang magnificent in the ink black sky
illuminating with its golden eye; caught in the eye of a doe.
In bejeweled shards of light reflecting back like millions of diamonds
Fallen to the earthen floor below.

Just Sixty Seconds
Oliver sat at a cold, grey steel-covered table. He knew he was next. The longer he sat here, the more confident he knew he wouldn’t make it. His hands were tied to the chair he was sitting on, pushed up against the steel table. A small camera in the corner of the ceiling with a tiny red flashing light was the only thing he was focused on. He felt sick to the stomach. He knew he didn’t have long.
