The Starlight Shone Through The Window Frame Poem by Gert Strydom

The Starlight Shone Through The Window Frame



The starlight shone through the window frame
while it broke here and there
through some clouds
and I heard you breathing against me

and every now and then your hand stroked
over my head as if you wanted to make sure
that I am all right or really there

and I heard you mumble in your sleep
and there was a golden full moon
when the clouds later opened
and much too early the alarm went off.
