On Cloud Nine

The spent sun sets, takes away my day
I paint new sun on canvas within
The silver moon in satin night sky
Reflects in inner mirror my dreams
Configured in essence euphoric
For your charming closeness completes me.

I walk the penultimate ninth mile
My soul spreads wings for the final flight
Soars to eternal bliss on cloud nine.
