Communion

Snow flake wisps in random flurries
				Waft through he moon’s eternal flow.
				Lengthened shadowy figures linger,
				Hot breath stilled in the streetlamp's glow,
				Embracing there in the street below.

				The winters moon, caught slyly peeping
				Coyly draws her sheltering screen of
				Flimsy gossamer clouds around her,
				Shielding sad eyes from this worldly scene.

				Shimmering crystal crackling sidewalks
				Mirror the sea of twinkling stars
				As stumbling, mumbling long-time losers
				Forced from their haunts in local bars
				Seek kindred souls for the lonely hours

                       	 	Cherished images return to greet me
				Faces etched in seamless time
				There through the snowflakes resurrected
				From hallowed chambers in my mind,
				Those whose lives once fused with mine
