An October Night Poem by Terry Biscamp

An October Night

Rating: 3.8


She always watches the night sky
Sitting for hours beneath the starlight
Giving freedom to her mind
To wander at her delight.

Words escape her lips
Though no one else is around
Smiling to herself..
Visiting the memories she’s found.

A time so far away
Or one not so long ago
Still they dwell inside
Only for her to know.

A poem not yet written
Dances in her spirit..
An incandescent song plays on and on
And only she can hear it.

A knight in shining armor
Rides so very near
She blinks and finds him gone
In a world that is surreal.

A piece of yesterday still drifts
To take her breath away
She holds it close for awhile
But knows it cannot stay.

Someone calling from the house
Intervenes the trance she‘s lost in..
As she raises from the carpet of grass
Her knight is still felt on her skin.

Walking toward the house
Her smile once again in place
She tucks her memory deep down inside
One she’ll never erase..

Always in the back of her mind
Her memories always eternal
Loving the night, watching the stars
Dreaming in her nocturnal….
