The night is cool,
a light breeze displaces the leaves all around,
letting them know of the Earth’s breath.
The sky, a mixture of red pastel hues,
almost a rainbow upon her dome –
Sailor’s Delight.
In far too little time, life all around will have changed,
the night will have gotten darker,
and the sky affixed with visible stars.
A bright light emerges, round and luminous –
the moon.
Some nights we forget about its existence,
but like our thoughts, it is there.
The red pastel sky, now a vision of the past,
a delightful record stay affixed –
like the stars in the sky –
to the deep seed of my mind.
And when I recall the sweetness of life,
I shall recall the red pastel hue of night,
that sweet Sailor’s Delight.
