Just as the jealous sun

finally quits and gives up,

a dark most handsome girl,

arrives from out of nowhere. 

Eyes stare up at her,

she and her crescent curves

it’s truly impossible to know

the affect 

she’s going to have on us.

That is until, 

we turn and take notice

to a once in a lifetime flood

and here is where it starts. 

Hidden somewhere behind

the dark corners of night

she’s truly in our nighttime sky,

filling and flooding our eyes. 

I cannot help but notice

a single rose sits

begging for our royal inspection. 

Heavy are the words of introspect

become aware of the moment 

it’s harder said than done,

because our moments are fleeting

and on a night like this

we should simply

gather and dance.
