Analysis of As one in verse
Mark Cloutier 1972 (Kaneohe)
The moon casts light
Of the sun covered above
And a world unknown
Then it rains down stars
Of darkness and light
And one walks in the night
Upon the waters clear
Of a moon in sphere
Then they hear Words
Of color and fusion
Producing children
Who hear the light
Of words undisturbed
As they sleep of dreams
And awaken to life's vision
As death is put to bed
And the moon appears
In suns sphere
To hear the darkness
Of stars and the light
Of the sun covered above
As they all fall
As one in verse
