Perception

"One's destination is never a place but rather a new way of looking at things" Henry Miller

out amid the blanketing eclipsed along pas(t)sed appeared in her gloaming a ne'r nether of nighttime sky searched by starlight mooned where no beginnings nor any ends beheld bathing in a darkness of time solemn I stare where footfalls fell in patterns of three as if dancing in a never ending breeze a ballerina light as the snowflakes melted on the tips of tongues to go back to when we were young what verses would be sung would we do it all again I traipse my weary feet across the valley of your dreams a spruce of blue looking only in the shadow of you an emerald of peace cut to precision adorned at the nape of her echoes far but not out of reach
