Mirroring the Moon

Do you know what I mean?
Out on the beach, night just set in
out comes the glowing full moon
Filled up with Ahi and Poi as we are
possibly a little high on vulcanic air
We realise the moon is lonely up there
waves disrupting her reflectionin the sea
and really, since the water is warm
what should we care?

Three slightly awkward moons
wade into the water
Perfect symmetry

Music: A World of Our Own, The Seekers
Quote: Language exerts hidden power, like a moon on the tides. -Rita Mae Brown

I'm guessing by your imagery that you are back in Hawaii. Hope you are doing well and that being back in school isn't too weird.

Hey, not sure if you remember, but there was a female singer/band that we listened to when I visited. Who is she?
