The meteor measures our breath in streams of stardust

By A.E. Bayne

The meteor measures our breath in streams of stardust.
O! Conscience in the cold,
How far will you go to find a home with me?
Night's damp chill hangs over us still,
And you, in perpetuity,
Pluck lightly over my heartstrings,
Playing each with the touch of a weaver.
Star shower reigns overhead,
As your fingers twine mine with ease.

A wonderful way to start my morning by reading your work; lovely, just lovely.

Sometimes you hit stuff so right on that it is unbelievable. In my humble opinion, one of your best. Thank you.
