Inhabited

we found the cave behind the waterfall and stood and simply wondered at it all the night was dark and we were far from home' you laughed and said this place was for a gnome we built a fire and shivered in the glow a fantasy ,a feeling seemed to grow, your eyes were just too bright for me to trust, I saw strange footprints forming in the dust A golden goblet shimmered o'er my head a mist poured softly blurring all you said you leaned to touch my lips with jaded hands and I forgot tomorrow and our plans. I felt a jolt to never be alone the footprints in thedust are now my own.
