Everlasting Echoes In My Mind

Under last propitious auspices of a half-moon sky
swaying within lingering notes slipping slowly away
tepid eyes gaze adrift  misted
over a still sea  imagining
two silhouettes dancing arm in arm
across distant shores and distant memories.

Gasps gentle gasps holding breaths
in meaningful moments
where faraway stars illuminate fantasy
and gracefully glide on every breeze
the notes of a rising tomorrow join hands
with the keys from a fading yesterday
forming everlasting echoes in my mind

It's a memory, fading perhaps, but with everlasting echoes. I love this image, thank you.
