I awoke early
this morning
from a restless
night's sleep
listening to the sounds
of old diesels dead-heading
on distant highways
going places unknown
the chirping of robins
dancing in a stand
of old oak trees
beside a day creek bed
there is a summer's moon
hanging low in the sky
it's moonbeams shimmering
through the holes in my walls
on the hilltop
the castle is silhouetted
in the moonlight shinning
through its tower windows
projecting a picture
of your face in the sky
smiling upon me
like an old masterpiece
