                                  LOVE VISITED

Love visited me once

On a moonlit night

Last in six months,

I grew,

Was nourished,

Became almost human

As my being sought a home,

I held the moon at arm’s length

And watched it grow small

As its certain cycle

Continued to darkness,

The baying of dogs rings untrue,

The sky is empty.
