Blanket of stars in the sky
Seemed to tuck me to sleep tonight.

Beyond the fence she hesitates,
And drops a paw, and tries the dust.
It is a clearing—but she waits
No longer minute than she must.

You are worth
the time it takes
to slow down,
be still
and rest.

Dusk here is a lullaby that sings the day
into evening, then hums into the night
like the incoming tide drifts onto the strand.

We were crowded in the cabin,
Not a soul would dare to sleep,
It was midnight on the waters,
And a storm was on the deep.

Seeing the Carnival lights...
The big wheel turning...
Silence, poised, for an eternity of bliss
On the pinnacle of delight.

This is my letter to the World
That never wrote to Me—
The simple News that Nature told—
With tender Majesty

Most of the country is hushed out there
As the Moon climbs over the hill,
The creatures out in the wild beware
And the air is breathless, still

Watching the moon at midnight,
solitary, mid-sky,
I knew myself completely,
no part left out

"If you were busy being kind,
Before you knew it you would find
You'd soon forget to think 'twas true
That someone was unkind to you."

Watching your shadow
Move
In the window
From the street
Knowing that time
Sometimes stills
For us
And that I am
Almost home

Shall I take you down
amongst the reeds of the pond
to watch the moonlight
illuminate your essence
so that I might bathe in it.
