Moments in silence

 

Air breathes from silent corners

As the night sky moves

The stars heard in her words

Reflect radiance from the moon

 

The calm and serene ocean

Greets with tidings from the shore

Scattered shadows from the clouds

As the waves look like velour

 

Many summers before

We met the colors of our eyes

No words need to be spoken

Only sounds from our sighs

 

A still night upon us

As if time has ceased

One last moment to hold

As I scatter the ashes of my deceased

You made a very intense, and personal experience, accessible to the reader.

I hope you post this to my group, "The Sun and the Moon and the Stars"

How melancholic in the end but melodious throughout. There is nothing like the look of one to another in knowing without words being spoken - you have certainly captured that essence. Well done. Thank you.
Light,
