I Found You

I found you 
in the stars as they blinked
like fireflies in the navy velvet canopy of midnight.

I found you in the soft grassy knolls of the isles off the 
California, those coastal slices of money and madness
where the weekend yachties 
have their play dates.

I found you on that road when it unexpectedly
veered to the left,
leaving the beaten path in the dust,

and the last stop where the fading mirror
was nailed to the crooked oak tree with it's ancient branches 
sturdier than life,
there I found you.
