reaching for the stars
a lovely luscious lithe maiden appeared out of shadows
mystical and ethereal, a vision we had never expected
she stood on her tippy toes and reached for the stars
I found myself holding my breath,
expecting her to bring one down at any time
she reminded me of a mermaid with legs
a vision, almost as if she was not of this earth
she disappeared before I had a chance to call out
I have never forgotten her; expecting her to appear nightly
