Before I Write a Love Poem
restless perceptions lie
in shadows they stir
in moments of silence words stir
as they wait to take form
the house is still
but it breathes
outside the window
a yard light shines a star
in the back of the house
a quiet side street
notes jotted down in haste
wait for the morning light
a love poem to be written
waits to be shared
