BANGOR (that OR) ME

Dew gathers on bowing  petals
as night crawlers venture forth to bask
in the shallowing light of a gentle moon
drifting over fragrant apple blossoms;
star-lit wings of hovering moths

Scents passing on the cooling breeze
flow across the newly cut fields
each wind with a message to deliver
bringing me other restful moments
as I open fully the gifts of night

I stroll across the lawn
wetting my feet in the dew laden grass
binding myself to only this moment
savoring a dark respite from the day
allowing my worries to float deep into the night

Ahhhhhh....I am wallowing in your imagery!

Your descriptions incredible...my toes are wet with dew...*grin*

I can't say enough!  This is pure magic...


 Freedom of expression is the watch word...
