A
Night by the River, Just Us
the crackling fire dances
with the night
the river faithfully glides
towards the sea
ancient pines hover, elegant
in the firelight
their fragrance perfuming the
night
the sky ablaze with stars, blankets
us
the moon peeks over the ridge
slowly the fire fades with
the night
we slip into the darkness . .
.
river song in our dreams
