Between Encounters
(a special moment)
Half alseep, I penned, 
"I've gone to bed, 
the lights are out,
My eyes are closed, 
I'm waiting for sleep to come,
I think of you and smile."

that became

"My room is dark,
I've gone to bed.
My eyes are closed,
What dreams ahead?
I think of you and smile."

and finally – 


The room is dark — I'm alone, in bed,
Sorting events that remain... unfiled.

My eyes are closed — what's just ahead?
You came to mind... and I smiled.
