whispering night

cool breezes merge

into morning

i find myself

floating

in an endless sea

lulling me

with soft caresses

a warmth enveloping

lifting me

on crests of white

higher i float

i soar

so high i merge with sky

ocean and sky

and i

am left a star

peering down on

sleeping earth

quiet, calm

calmly i sail

with moon

with clouds

dare i reach

for other stars

what other star

that i may share

his warmth?
