Cemetery of Dreams

Chilled, fresh crisp breath 
walks slowly across the night
beckoning to me, to wonder
autumn making her mark

a star filled sky blankets the moon
dim lit pumpkins flicker
igniting an inner glow

life stumbles on 
leading slow
to a cemetery of forgotten dreams

an eternity it seems
since we last rolled in the leaves
since lost we felt, 
when breath filtered
into one another

no darkness, no light
no wrongs, no doubts

wonderment making out
a spirit of presence performing 
holding long our attention
just right
