Just when I'd begun to dance, the music stopped. I close my eyes and wait, listening to the still. I can't hear him anymore and maybe I never will. But I will wait till the light grows dim, acoustic color memories twirl around in place of him until the music plays again. |

Au Sable Point It was dark As it always seems to be At this time of year The houses Bedded in their yards With their eyes closed The cars crowded along the curbs In a sky without clouds Among what stars there were The moon in its constant solitude Focused the silence of the hour It is too late for this I thought And yet still I stood there As I have before More often than I care to recall As if that night it might be different If only for a little longer the heart’s Faith would have its miracle And that dawn which had never come Would arrive As if I waited I would soon feel the tender warmth of it And so again I stood in the depths of night Waiting to hear The sound of light Footsteps on the street ................... At least it's an excuse for poetry. John |
