I wonder
in another life ~
was I an eastern wind
or a whisper
come to rest
upon your bed

was I a night
like all the rest ~
starlight
in my hair
a cloak of make believe
and endless wish

was I a song
o falala ~
something worth
the dance
sung beneath the covers
one morning
chill of May

do you remember now
the way I warmed
to places in between
forever
til forever
lest I stay ~

like I was all
you needed
a whisper in the night ~
starlight and
a note beside
your bed

. . .
