The Full Moon Sees It All. Tonight Illusion Binds
Lunar reflections

Tonight, love requited, unrequited, hopefuls float where lanterns flicker, full moon shimmer — gossamer sheer, veiled secrets adhere
Tonight, atrocities seek truce Blades in sheaths, families gather — delicacies familiar bring laughter
Tonight, blossoms offer best empathy Budding joy blooms know, ripened glory too — only autumn arrivals fully construe
Tonight, summer lotus glimpses autumn intricacies Ponds pregnant with comprehension embed with gold — fool the eyes of fools untold
Tonight, the pond sees opposites as mirrors do — knowing the full moon infuses never blinds The full moon sees all. Tonight illusion binds
Mid-Autumn/Moon Festival: Day 15, Month 8, Chinese lunar calendar. Full harvest moon. Falls on September 10, 2022.
Legend: Chinese Hans circulated coded messages in mooncakes to overthrow Mongols in Yuan Dynasty (1271–1368).
