Last night...

I  sat  under
a full moon watching it
float across  the  sky,  being
comfortable with your silence.
I  climbed the stars one by one
letting the darkness lift me.  I
thought  about words  and how
they  have  taught  me to
view  the  world  in  a
different light.


A spark arced above, capturing my attention,
traveling smoothly until it faded,
leaving me suspended in time...
remembering when.

The warmest breeze swept over me,
and for a moment, I wondered
if you were watching the night skies, too,
meeting my loneliness halfway.

very very well done Maureen.
Was some night out last night yes?
Very inspiring indeed.

Enjoy life, this is NOT a dress rehearsal.
