Nights of Pearl

Like a pearl necklace in the heavens had been unwound
Whitness in perfect sizes fell all around
Falling so gently, like a baby's footsteps; not a sound
Touching everything on its way, what a crowd.

Steaming coffee, whispering warmth
A seduction of a unique sort.

Candles lit to celebrate another year
Pride and joy for still being so near
A bright red rose causing unspoken words to dance in my ears
A moment with no fear.

Dark long eyelashes, rise and fall
Shy,sheer; submitting to the moment's call.

Wandering if the snow caused it all......
