Elicit Thoughts

as i sit here my thoughts thunder in with the eventide the orb of night lights a path as i walk along i watch my shadow dance tree limbs reach towards me i can almost feel your hands touching me tonight's air is warm like your breath as it falls against me i hear the ebb of your breathing mingled within this slight breeze and i wish you here fireflies flicker like stars and your eyes and i become lost again deep in my thoughts the aroma of summertide lingers through the garden, i reach for a flower its petal is moist and soft like a brush from your lips i can't help long for you as the iris closes its petals and surrenders to night
