A Nearby Star

Perched on a mossy cliffside
Basking in the warmth
Of a nearby star

The scents of sea
And conifers

Carried on the breeze

While I
Close my eyes

Breathe in
All of existence
Gathered in a moment

crisp
cold
wind

sun falls
like a poet’s first words
illumination lacking warmth

so I shiver

wrapped in a blanket of silence
broken only by the wind
bending the tall grass

rapt in a solitude
broken only by gulls on the wing
bending the air to their whim

Sometimes I run cold
It’s hard to find
The love inside

For me
For you
For anyone
For anything

Then you hold me
Look into my eyes
Show me what love is

You wear your heart
With just a look
So that anyone can see

Even me
In the cold dark blue
Warming to the warmth of you

I feel the calm
The blue cool
The amber warmth
And the universe
All around me

And then
I remember

I am the universe
I am the cool
And the warmth
I am the calm
