We Were One

Standing in a meadow of imagination
Guided, by a celestial destination
Along the dale
Follow the trail
To a regatta, of fireflies with luminous sails

The heavy night air, stills an apprising gaze
As lights set the meadow ablaze
Yellow green
With a lunar sheen
A breezy wave, to a star studded scene

Bathed in the beauty of a blushing moon
Crickets fiddle, night birds sing, frogs croon
A cacophony
Nature's symphony
The sound of heaven, orchestrated brilliantly

An owl takes flight to a pied-a-terre
Watches, with his wide eyed stare
Feeling the love
From God above
I am inspired, by the awesomeness of

For a moment in time we were one
What was, what is and what's to come



  pied-a-terre: secondary shelter
    an original poem by Daniel Turner
