I look to the moon
shining brightly in the nighttime sky,
and for just a moment
I stand still and listen.
I hope to hear your voice
in the silence of the night.
I close my eyes,
waiting for you to speak to me.
The crisp winter air
swirls around me in little gusts,
and in that moment
all my senses are alive.
I look to the moon,
illuminating the clouds,
and I ask myself
where are you now?
There are times when I feel your presence,
the powerful feeling of unconditional love
filling me from within.
That is when I know you are near.
Tonight I cannot feel you,
as those times are special and rare.
But I know you are with me
more often than I realize.
I say goodnight to the moon
and the peacefulness of the night,
walking back inside
to those I love.

WOW! Beautifully written, Kathy!

Thanks Claudia. I took a picture of the moon and wanted to write about it. I often think of my mom in the peacefulness of the night. Take care
