Donations are essential to keep Write Out Loud going    

Faded

Faded moon in a 

daytime sky, lingers

there to remind

of the upturn 

of the night, 

the dark that spurns

plans left unclaimed 

by the blaze of day,

but still grants

that last resort

of wishing upon

a starlit scape.

A very fine, well-judged poem, Holden.
