stars kiss fingertips

as i trace the ellipse

of the distance

between rhymes

the ache of time

waiting once more

for a spectral sailor

to reach my shore

as petals on waves

the love that i gave

amplified by yours

The stars were incredible this morning. I have spent years watching them on the shoreline and over the trees. I found the constellation of Orion. It is comforting stellar terrain being in a new place.
