Daily missive for Thursday the 14th of November.~by Peter Forster

 

 

Daily missive for Thursday the 14th of November.

The nearness of you
Almost upon me
Close enough to touch
Reaching out
Senses straining
To break free
Escape the
Earthly bound
Corporeal
Striving to float
Into the ether
The netherworld
Somewhere between
Oppositional planes
Where there is no distance
No time or resistance
To the calling
I know is maintaining
The belief in you
Even as I grow weak
The promise is strong
It remains
At the heart of me
Creating an allowance
For the beauty
In the world
To unfold
As the wings
Of a Butterfly
Fill with magic
Wild flowers will grow
In the wilderness
Starlight glows
At the dead of night
There are fireflies
And moonbeams
Music and candlelight
For my eyes
To behold
And there in the wonder
Is my belief,
In the nearness of you.
