Between Orbs and Shadows
Tonight, as rain drums on the roof,
and the moon broods behind the mountains,
I'm flooded with a storm of sighs.
Every hopeful flash across the sky tonight
instills in me a lighter thought,
and buoys me in my deep emotion.
My evening star's burnt out it’s light,
but though this torch now lacks a flame,
my hope will always lightly step
between faint orbs and shadows,
into a winsome dreamland--
where memories lovingly stroke my heart.
