Under the full moon’s quiet silver light,
My heart remembers you tonight.
In every breeze, your whisper stays,
A love that glows through distant days.

Beneath the quiet lamps of the city street,
We wander slowly where our footsteps meet.
The night hums softly with a silver glow,
And side by side, we let the whole world slow

Remembering Horton Foote’s birthday, I #amlistening to my inescapable voice.
“Write,” it says.
I hear...and obey.

Crescent moon hangs softly in the night sky,
Two cups of coffee warm beneath its quiet light.
Your laughter lingers like a distant sigh,
And longing blooms in the silence of the night

We trace our laughter in the sand below.
The waves hum gently to the fading light,
Two hearts playing in the gold of night.

Rain drums softly on the windowpane,
Two cups of coffee warming the quiet between us.
In the storm’s silver whisper, memories bloom again,
Like gentle echoes of a moment that still holds us.
