Adrift In a Wish

trailed by stardust
the first star of twilight
where i scatter my wishes
glitters like your eyes
locked in the depths of mine

the gossamer breeze
caresses my skin
like a tongued whisper
escaping your winded breath
within the thrust of night

i arch myself blandly
in the contours of shadows
aglow with the lambency of moon
adrift in wishes of you

I absolutely love that last line, " adrift in wishes of you" Now I am adrift in wishes that I had written that. Such beautiful thoughts seem to flow effortlessly from your pen my friend.
