Dancing With Promises

When night falls, descending from
the stalking winds that plague the day
into the stillness of the night air
evoking wishful thinking

There, rescued from the wilderness
of the mind, cluttered with the day’s
trials and tribulations moving them
gently into oblivion, with promises fulfilled
of love freely given and joyfully accepted

… To dance in the midst of shadows
