as the
ferry
sways
on the
autumn
swell
we walk
the deck
in silent
awe
beneath
the silver
raiment
a clear
and
milky
way
set
light
by Perseids
of
cold
and
streaking
fire

there is
a chill
within
the air
the dank
dark
chill
of dawning
but as
the sky
turns
black
to
blue
I see
your
eyes
catch
light anew
as
Perseids
lit
the raiment
