Night Vision

Falling snow
in the light of night
creating
hues of blue
reflecting a bright darkness –
takes my breath away.

Dark Nights

DARK NIGHTS

blanketing
the night, clouds cover
all hope of
shooting stars
and sending wishes to the
far side of the moon

 OF WISHES AND DREAMS

To no longer be alone
a midsummer night’s dream.
A family to call my own,
to no longer be alone.
This dream of mine, I’ve made known,
casting my wish on full moon’s beam.
To no longer be alone
a midsummer night’s dream.

Night Lights

NIGHT LIGHTS

Midsummer
finds me looking to
the night sky.
Sparks of light,
followed by our ooohs and ahhhhs,
always bring a smile.

DE LUNA

Laughing moon
watches over me
as I sleep.
She lights me
with her smile, comforting me
on the nights I weep.
