This morning the winter moon whispered my name
So I pulled on my boots and headed outside
Camera in one hand
Red mug of tea clutched in the other
My fingers were warm on one side
And nearly frozen on the other
The crunch of my footsteps echoed off of the dark
And I hoped I wouldn't wake my sleeping family
Have you ever felt as though you were the only person on the planet?
Eyes bright
Starlight even brighter
My heart wide open
As the moonbeams streamed down all around me
Their glow reflected off of the deep powdery snow
I wondered if this was heaven
And for a brief moment, I could sense it
I tipped my face up and smiled at the full moon
"The best is yet to come," she silently smiled back
