Like in a moment of sophistication,
The night ramps through the runway of darkness,
Her scent, melancholy,
i desire not—
grips my soul,
Her cape, the daunting cold,
I know not —
hits me at the core
the rustling leaves, the shadows seem
applauding her reign, but not me
and the faint, glowing streetlights
I close my eyes
in unison with those who slumber,
wishing the morning light will come
sooner….

Author's Note:
Together with my family, we went through terrible hardships early this year.
By the Grace of God through His Son Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit, we were
able to surpass the odds. The above poem is written from those experiences.
