Although the wind
Although the wind blows terribly here, the moonlight also leaks between the roof planks of this ruined house.

Commentary by Ivan M. Granger
We're coming up on the full moon... or perhaps I should say that the full moon is coming up on us. So I thought of this poem.
I love the layered ways our mind interprets the image of this poem.
And a good reminder to us to open enough space between our roof planks to let the moonlight in.
Have a magical and illuminating full moon!
