moonlight
through the bathroom window
illuminates
your furrowed brow
as you search
for a word.
scratching one out
with the stub
of your pencil —
something
doesn’t fit
is it a dream
that has brought
phrases to your mind —
unrelated thoughts
that will one day
find a home?

backwoods trails
scrambling over logs
ducking branches
scratching arms
grouse and partridge
mad flapping wings…
quiet, still
waiting
for danger to pass
underbrush clears
leaves crunch
between tall stately trees
reaching forever
golden hawks circle
(they always do)
clouds drift slowly
magic descends
i think of places
from where we’ve come
and what it took to get here —
we are blessed

i dreamed
of blackberry kisses
stars that traced my shoulder
landscapes explored
places remembered
eyes of onyx, raven hair
trails in the moonlight
nights without number
days without care
.
there is a place
and you are there
a dog, two cats
some chickens in the yard
a swing for rocking
to watch the sunrise
share a little shiver —
hold each other tighter
to soothe the morning chill
a new life starts
with us
.
