My light

Posted byPhillip Knight ScottPosted inPoemsTags:, , , , ,

She appeared in my life, brilliant light
I thought an ephemeral dream
beyond my reach or, worse, destined
to disappear over the horizon 

but she refused to be a shooting star
and instead burns in the daylight,
gleaming in grooves long in the dark.
