Night Passage

No wind tonight. Just the frosty threat Of snow for the morning. The eternal dark revival, Promising nothing more than the next day's light. Kiss me tonight? Will you? With the distant hum in our ears? Lovers always find a way Just as a still night finds the day. The change hypnotic, translucent, and broad As we tumble and churn through life's flood.
