Separate Together

Listen to the girl  

who’s singing.

Softly by the window

in the summer haze.

Look into her eyes

and see the moonlight –

dancing slowly,

mesmerizing… in cadence.

Slightly sad –

the song is floating

and flies away

into the breeze.

The last couplet –

the song born, breathing –

the girl now silent,

full of hope.

With quiet pray

she sends her kisses,

along the vibrant,

loving song.

Somewhere,

in the middle of a desert,

a lonely boy

is smiling soft. 

Into his dreams

he is getting kisses. 

He hears 

the singing, praying girl.
