My mind was filled with no thoughts at all, I was void of contemplation, no emotions, no expectations there was just the jaunt... I remember sitting in an English chair the woods were so silent and still that all I could hear was the sound of the stars twinkling in the black, moon lit, night sky... I guess I was listening intently for the sound of your heart beat, I was wondering how many times before it had been broken, how many times before it had felt loves pang... the fire played between the stones, it looked to be dancing across the logs, I watched as the kindling was consumed and glowing embers were all that remained it reminded me of life... I turned and looked at you, I saw the flames reflecting in your eyes there was a glow on your face it roused me to ponder reflections and wonder about the passion you contain within... I wondered what hidden desire was being withheld, I wondered about who you are, are you more then a twinkling night star... the fire flies were dancing an uncanny cavort in a nearby field they were beckoning me to come and join them... alas the playful musings that once filled my mind were gone, love's past which I thought I clearly understood was mistaken and I found myself empty and vacant of understanding... my future remains lost and its direction blurred yet I some how knew what my presence represents... I still accept that the future is always just a moment away and as it arrives it changes to the present then fades into the past... I've done so much in my life yet it is so little, there are days when the path I travel isn't marked so clearly and the day seems to be as dark and foreboding as the night... This night I'm sure of my reflections for I found a new direction, this night penetrated through my misgivings to a new beginning and if not with you then with someone that shares your compassion, with one who has your understanding, and with one who affirms life as much as you do... A path to a future flickers bright for your kindred spirit shines on the way, and I've answered my own question for you're more then a twinkling night star for I've discovered you are my friend...

I love the imagery in this poem......
I could literally see the fanciful fireflies and feel the warmth of the fire........
