Soft Moonlight

by Kelly Wright - Aries

I slipped into your room
late last night
hovered over
in soft moonlight
I blew kisses
stroked your hair
sprinkling fairy dust-
into the air
I laced your dreams
with golden string
opened your heart
to hear it sing
laid upon you
a velvet sheet
filled your desires
till complete
I chased shadows
     &
made it calm
giving you peace
for the coming of dawn
I lit candles
hung a halo from your bed...
sorry sweet angel
no words were said
for I was only there
to watch your sleepy spell
toss some coins
in your wishing well
so from now on
when you feel a chill-
lay totally silent
      &
perfectly still
as I will always 
leave a gift for you
among the mists
of morning dew...
