Presence

It is five a. m.

heavens adorned with stars ,

southeasterly wind ceaseless

In Rowville town

street lights still dancing

like miniature fireworks

I can no longer

see the moon, but I can sense

the calming presence of you

Grateful to you for being here

gentle celestial lady ,

grateful to you for watching over me
