Sometimes
in the middle of the night
even crickets are quiet
I have the world to myself

clear, starlit sky
the air lies still
not yet too cold

allowing me brief moments
of memory
warm memory

without consequence.

"Without consequence" or conscience? I find the night to be very inspiring. Thanks for the read.

Now this is really a beautiful poem. I understand what you are saying,

"allowing me brief moments
of memory
warm memory

without consequence"

What a nice thought. Just remembering without having to explain yourself to anyone. Yes, I've been there. I love the way you write things that anyone can relate to. Great job!

My favorite time! I loved this in its entirety. A verse I can repeat to myself over and over and know it by heart.

Sincerely,
Regina

Yes, I do the same. Memories are so sweet late at night when all is still. Funny though, how we only remember the good times. But, then again, that's what memories are for
