Full Moon On the Rise

The sprinklers tick tick tick; 
the neighborhood hounds are frisky and calling to one another;  
Even the orbs gather round to celebrate her glory. 
The dark is alive and beating with a distant drum. 
People are gathering, under the moon tonight-the beautiful Super Moon. 
There is no humble bow of her brilliance. 
She proudly draws closer than she's been all year, in a ceremonial exhibition.  
My camera hungrily laps the brilliant scene, 
and I inwardly bemoan that it cannot replicate the perception of my vision. 
In wonder I gaze into her splendor. 
The nocturnal chatter quiets my soul.
