Midnight Worship

Through each passing night I profess the songs of my spirit Into the darkening sable skies Ever higher and uninhibited A complete release of each aspiration Reverberating into faint perpetuity Softly through the damp silken strands Through the restive web spun of today My pining hopes softly tumble Petioles of desire’s violet blossom Onto the sleeping eyes of reverie In perfumed hopes my essence stirs Here I beseech the untapped promise In sweet mint blossoms of Black Birch trees On the seashore I profess my passions To the moon I rise and fall in the reverent waves
