scecrets at midnight

 

She waits for me at midnight 

the stars aligned n such a way 

as to reveal her sudden beauty 

i trace the lines between the sparkles 

as if they, like bubbles, would perhaps burst

spouting an array of lights!

alas they twinkle less brightly 

she has not yet unveiled.

i sense her close 

the air thickened 

fuller with anticipation 

i have no choice but to offer myself patience 

And suddenly the gloriousness of her is revealed 

and I am whole in her radiance 

filled and alive 

luminous, I dance a halo

like I’ve never danced before 

the patterns anew 

and the footsteps in the sand 

spell hope 

aligned in the order of a prayer 

without even the thought of one 

just the joy that hung upon the air.

This is really nice.  I like

This is really nice.  I like that it's it's open-ended.  One could read it as a love poem but it could be for a lover, a parent, friend, angel, child.  The reader gets to make that choice or speculate...

I’m so glad it was an angel

I’m so glad it was an angel of mercy in the dark 

the heaviest weight on the heart 

just before the relief of compassion,

it was the hope that called 

and brought with it such gracious glory

in such wonderous fashion x
