It is summer -
a quiet night
- the silence
disquieting
all those lights
out on the water -
- stars, like floating
diamonds
moon, you big old pearl
- my lifebuoy
a driftwood fire of dreams
to hold me -
until morning comes
slowly - like a sad-eyed model
- tired of her beauty, wanting
more than a moment in the sun.
