Marquis Mc Mills-Cooper Poet Rhyme

Sharing the Night We'Re Under

The sky has lost its bluish hue,
it's gone from bright to dark

The moon and stars arrive in view,
to light a sky once stark

I watch the sky from where I am,
my thoughts begin to stray

I know my sky is what you see,
though you're so far away

My stars you view so infinite,
their schemes you also see

I'm ailed you see my "man in moon",
much more than you see me

My heart stays heavy, as we’re together,
as often as moons are blue

Though far apart, at least I share, 
my nightly sky with you



- Written 22 October 2013 at North KAIA -Kabul, Afghanistan (North Kabul International Airport)
