WILDFLOWERS

Caught between 
The breath of fire 
And the breeze 
My heart stood still, waiting
For your constellation to rise 
Above darkened horizons 
Beyond my raging seas 

I heard the moon's insolent laughter 
Rippling around his curves
And I smiled 
For I know, when his skies shatter 
And his shine fades 
My star will still adorn our nights 
And our love will still live and bloom 
Like wildflowers 
Nodding shyly, in the enchanting everglades
