Soft and Simple

a line in a song I heard sung
music soft and simple
seems like it was yesterday

yesterday, a moment in time
feet firmly on the ground
a night sky with stars

stars, reflecting eyes and heart
blocking what I didn't see
whispers underneath the moon

moon, now full with frosty glow
music in silence it echoes
as I lay alone

Sound so familiar to me JB, a song I heard so long ago, which like yesterday. Sincerely, Moses
