The Morrow's Call

As I lay 'neath
the night's lavender glow
tonight, you fill the mind.

Attuned, clouds drifting,
shadowing the moon,
as stars peek modestly from behind.

Restrained, memories
replay the day
intently felt I, your gaze.

Trembling, at thoughts
of caressing, each touch
joining the night, in it's haze.

Will these moments be fleeting
of muse, wondering...
What shall the morrow bring?

As it silently enters
it's tender display
of eternities song to sing.

Throughout the heavens
the skies cross-streak
while in front of the moon, mists the dark.

As the coolness weighs down
and blankets the night,
mind travels the strain of a lark.

Oft skyward in flight,
my heart fluttering,
in beauty, the night's reward.

As the sun rises east
meeting lavender haze,
once again, the golden's restored.

A promising start to
a new renaissance,
lending it's warmth over all.

Ever extending
it's arms reaching wide
answering needs of each morning's call.

Maureen, this is so very beautiful and exudes your warmth throughout.... Steve B

“The union of the mathematician with the poet,
fervor with measure, passion with correctness,
this surely is the ideal”

Maurine - Very well written - just the right amount of simile to keep it from getting lost while retaining an ethereal quality.  Yes.  Very well written sums it up.

Ms Emily Bronte (wuthering heights) would be squriming in envy as this piece, hauntingly beautiful Maureen. wonderful poem.
