Lotus Petals

    During these late evening hours,
    elements arise to
    bridge the void between us.
    Thoughts are winding, weaving,
    reaching far beyond the waning moon,
    to meet where our dreams rustle through
    the heaven’s trees:
    distant galaxies.
    There, as silent stars dim their attire and
    fade into dark, celestial fretwork,
    our minds gracefully touch together
    like two sacred lotus petals.
