reality

in the long dark of night
when reality seems cold and hard and confusing
i'm not sure what to say
we can wait it out together
in the comfort of each other's warmth
knowing that with the rising sun
will dawn a new perspective


in the golden light of morning
little tufts of down
littering the bright green grass
sparkle with dew
like tiny fallen stars
a constellation under foot
how marvelous
that reality can be so soft
