~longing



Tethered to the sparkling sky
a lonely pillow of cloud
haloed in the moonlight
silently gloating afloat
all attempts to wipe it clean
& it still lingers about

I choose to fall in love with it.

I hug it in delight.
I now wish that it were so,
around me every night.

smiling through pale white lips.
Amused at my stance,
it chides me for being foolish
and then,
moves on.
