A moon hanging low amidst the glitter of stars, my heart's aflutter with dire anticipation. Together we cast golden coins in a fountain, the darkness of the night oozing with mystery. My heart's aflutter with dire anticipation, the unmistakable scent of love fills the air. Always the thought of you occupying my mind till I summon your familiar voice in the night. Together we cast golden coins in a fountain. What follows is a future completely unknown fraught with questions and answers that put us on edge, and beyond the horizon no news, not a glimpse. The darkness of the night oozing with mystery, wishing for the best we will not settle for less. We hope and we pray as we offer our plans to a moon hanging low amidst the glitter of stars. (Apparently this form is called Retourne)
