starlight dances off glass reflections
the timepiece casually ticking
softly
casting long shadows on the beautiful planes of your face
once I heard your singing voice
like sharp swords shaking off the tender judgement
of devotion
listening as your ghost falls away from your clasped hands
as a cast silver cloud over twilight sands
the peaceful silence of slumber slow and steady
while dawn lovingly drapes
with cold pale grace
its comforting perspectives around your bare ankles
and puts the darkest corners to rest
just for a moment
just for forever.......

Sublime. I love the concluding lines--beautiful; and what a beautiful girl too. She has that "forever" look in her eyes.
thanks so much johno!
in an odd sort of way I sometimes feel like those fleeting moments are much more lasting then if you had spent years with a person...
if i had the resources I would make huge prints of this series. Poster size.
maybe someday:)
you'll be the first on my list to give one to!
