In hidden alcoves
parted with light
and wistful tears
children whisper
of dreamers
as they gather;
The deep harvest moon
brings in the
shadowed voices
and with them
stirs the night
setting moths aflutter
like lace butterflies
dancing around
the world of dreams

A real man

kisses his children goodnight

How I have missed your work, sir!  
This is just as wonderful and enjoyable as all of your writing has every been to me. You get better and better, and I just want to keep reading.  

Sometimes the heart needs the solace of solitude and silence.
