You walk ahead

yet moonlight keeps you 

in its sights.

 

You move comfortably 

within the frame of night,

weave like shadow

through a skein of grass.

 

No looking side to side,

your spoor is flowing brown hair,

the narrow swing of arms,

the gentle impact of shoe on earth.

 

My attention’s all with you.

It cannot be divided.

I follow you

as dreams do sleep.
