Night Refrain

πŸ’š

By Colleen WaltersPublished 6 months ago β€’ Updated 6 months ago β€’ 1 min read

I sit here in the dark

a soft night breeze

gently blows on me

and my hair sways

to the tempo of

crickets singing the

song of their people

the cloudy sky

hangs like a veil

over a full moon

I see a peek of light

through the tree

branches

silhouetted against

the pale glow rising

a violin plays

a lovestruck melody

that flows across my

soul

spacial

sensual

strings

of my heart

answer

into the night

breeze

as I sit here

in the dark.
