goodnight love

open the window for a few 

to listen to a twilight tune 

the cicadas perform this evening 

 and the concert is just for you 


the whip-poor-will calls out 

with its steady trill 

and the night is alive 

and yet comfortingly still 

your head on your pillow 

and me warm under blankets tonight  

and the moon is rising high

and the stars so very bright 


and all i can say with a whisper

in a room where moonlight streams 

is, “let’s just breathe easy from now on.

let’s fill our world with dreams.”

There are people that will allow these expressions to take them to an ethereal or specific place, feeling, space, or thought. These people get me. They feel very special to me.

 The rest I appreciate even if they don’t go anywhere with it at all.
