Just before (Day 1399)

And there is morning

that immeasurable tranquility   

poised on the edge 

of a moment  just before 

you open your eyes

And there is night  

when you   caressed by 

pale blue strands of moonlight

lay   willing to be 

subsumed by slumber

And there this 

waiting place   where

the near nearness of you 

is more seductive by far 

than the mere pressure 

of a lover’s touch
