ONE NIGHT TOGETHER

by Denise Onerato; Sagittarius - Not entered

I layed on a blanket spread on the cold ground.
Not alone, I looked up at the stars,
And wondered what I'm doing here on this wild and crazy earth.
A cold hand grasped mine.
Hand and hand we watched as a shooting star passed by.
He asked me how I imagine the skies above.
I thought of the fantasy I've always known.
Millions of people with feathered wings, gold halos, and white robes;
Each floating aroung to land on a cloud of their choosing.
We stared up in awe at the unknown.
One night together was all we had left;
We spent it on the blanket on cold grounds.	 									
																																																																																																																																																																																																																								

Reason for writing:

    It was a great experience! We'd have had more of them if he didn't have to leave!
