Untitled by K. Dedrick

You

are the reflection

of a full moon

on an ocean wave.

 

A solitary grain

of sand on a shore

having withstood the test

of time.

 

The lonely soliloquy

of a loon

on a vast and empty lake

littered with leaves

in October’s wake.

 

A mountain top

piercing the sky

 

A pregnant

dewdrop

perched on the edge

of a petal

 

on the edge

of a meadow

 

on the edge

of imagination

 

on the edge

of a dream

 

You

are a sunrise;

a sunset

melting in

opaque gray

shrouded by the sultry sky

 

You

are

in every moment

in every breath

of my life
