Dreams of Starlight by rose-quartz
Cinnamon-scented air,
A taste of wine almost,
In the frosted blue
Of heaven's glass
He can taste it
On this night,
A night caught, like his memories
In a web of starlight,
Reminds him of a dream
Lost now, in the cold light
Of a single, lonely star,
The only dream he has now,
To find for his wife,
A shelter and a bed for the night.
