The Night
The night is a flame in which my hope burns; staring at the stars, I wait for the shadows tell me your secrets; in the sky, quiet, a wedding procession.
Luis Ignacio MarínPublished 7 years ago in PoetsAngel of darkness
It was a night like in a dream. Sit back and relax as I tell you the theme. It was warm, with a hint of breeze; the moonlight aiming to appease. The ocean waves crashed at my feet. Then outward bound they would retreat. The dolphins played in the light of the moon. Splishing and splashing and singing a tune. I sat to listen for awhile. I buried my feet in a cold sand pile. As I stared out upon the scene, I inhaled the air that smelled so clean. As I squished the sand between my toes, I then heard a voice say "excuse me. I don't mean to impose". "Wow", I said. "You gave me quite the scare. I did not see you standing there". "Tell me the way to heaven", she said. "I am afraid I've been mislead". "Whatever do you mean", I asked. Then suddenly like a vapor she had passed. Quickly, she had vanished into thin air. Nothing was left but one strand of hair. I picked it up and noticed it was no hair at all; it was a fragment of a feather, ever so small.

It's funny how a sunny day can turn so grey and start to spray cold precipitation while the clouds inflation shows a demonstration of the skies frustration.

I stopped to smell the roses, as philosophers advise it. Alas, no cure - I'd stood in manure that was on the ground beside it.
