Moon enters
through double glazed windows, 
spreads on the smooth white sheet
of my half empty bed.

I ponder her shepherd boy,
green, like the valleys.

And Tamino, inflamed with love
on a starry night
Reminds me of Cavafy, so much so that I want notes to tell me about the shepherd boy and Tamino.  

However, I don't need to know to get a complete experience of the poem.  The yearning for the other is apparent, and sealed, in the last two stanzas.
