A Poem by jacob erin-cilberto

Wanderers

 

 

would you walk through

the night with me

hold my hand

as we pass Mr. Moon

and he smiles

watching us fetch

a couple stars

to call our own

before we wake

to the reality

that it rained

all night.

' fetch a couple stars to call our own. ' I'm smiling at this thought. : )

I love everything about the night sky, because moments are magical. So peaceful, indeed. Jacob, your thoughts hold beauty and grace. This is so dreamy and romantic. : )

Many have commented on the dreamlike quality of life. Maybe the thought of fetching stars is part of that dream. Of course, maybe the rain is just another part of it.

Besides, fetching those stars Jacob, they say walking in the rain, holding hands, and at times dancing with someone special, is very romantic!! Soggy, yes, but romantic!!!
