Just as the jealous sun
finally quits and gives up,
a dark most handsome girl,
arrives from out of nowhere.
Eyes stare up at her,
she and her crescent curves
it’s truly impossible to know
the affect
she’s going to have on us.
That is until,
we turn and take notice
to a once in a lifetime flood
and here is where it starts.
Hidden somewhere behind
the dark corners of night
she’s truly in our nighttime sky,
filling and flooding our eyes.
I cannot help but notice
a single rose sits
begging for our royal inspection.
Heavy are the words of introspect
become aware of the moment
it’s harder said than done,
because our moments are fleeting
and on a night like this
we should simply
gather and dance.
