Copper Moon

Phantoms in the forest -
I saw them once,
or twice.
I was lying on the grass
with only your breath to keep
me warm.
A spot of golden
clay in the sky,
and all who saw spoke -
only You and I,
this once,
could hear it.


The birds fly slower,
and the lights go dim,
and I can see the first flake of snow,
each drop of rain explode
on the sidewalk.
Each moment then becomes an eternity,
and I can appreciate it as a lifetime.
Beauty in each instant.


This was perhaps one of the most beautiful moments in my life,

Most of all, I'm glad that I could share it with you.

Sleep well :)
