Last night
As then a full
Autumn moon
Slowly moved
Its silent way
Above across
A starry sky

I stood out
Alone
On the balcony
In hand a glass
Of our favorite
White wine

There was
A scent
Of something
In the evening air
Peach blossoms
Beyond reason
A delusion of the mind

That’s what it gets
For unguardedly listening

To heartstrings being played

The scent of peach blossoms out of season becomes more real than that of Spring, because the heart's voice is the voice of truth.

Very beautiful, John.

Love,
