Suppose
     grasses grew high thru asphalt cracks;
Would my memory haunt the tomb
     after a thousand years had lapsed
     with these words spoken silently
     or with your tunes?

While yet today, our moon silently drifts
     over selfish ruins (spoils of tomorrow),
No one hears the beauty it writes --
     life lines written in nite --
     each day harder to read because Earth's worth diminishes.

In black sky, starfire paths (a million lights away)
     twinkle mystery,
     beckon hope.
As I stare intensely, dense vastness overwhelms.
Thoughts focus on summit points,
     hyponotic spectrums followed.

Tomorrow . . . . just another day;
     but forever, Night is wholly hallowed.

In the midst of winter,
I found there lives within me..

Thanx for sharing this, it just drags you in
and lies you down beneath a night sky...
So peaceful.
