Silent Night by Lorette C. Luzajic

after Moonlight, by Helen McNicoll (Canada) 1905

 

The soundless sky 

speaks loudest; 

the silent moon 

meanders over marsh 

and into sky. 

Helen hears in violet, 

in brushstroke bulrush 

smudges, lush and 

viridescent in the dusk.


Lorette C. Luzajic is a widely published writer with poetry and fiction in hundreds of literary journals. She is the editor of The Ekphrastic Review, a journal devoted to writing inspired by art.
