The cool night breeze wafts through
Long auburn tresses, sunset dances a
Smile across her lips as she imagines
The wind’s caress to be the gentleness
Of his hands around her waist and the
Softness of his breath as he nuzzles back her
Hair, kissing each dainty freckle on her neck, and
She closes her eyes and imagines that each time
She thinks of him, she reaches to the heavens
Plucks a star from the sky and when she opens
Her eyes she finds her hands outstretched, wide
As the evening sky twinkles in her palms.
