the sun elf dreams

the night blew through the window screen cool chills from the distant forest hills where the pattern of a blanket kept you safe it expanded the heat where the heart is placed building a fire in your mind to circle the eyes with the far distant owl on the wing of surprise I flew in the wind, as to where I could not know it tumbled me blindly like a leaf going home past the towers of towns and sounds of desire a voice that stayed near was guiding me higher with a golden string echoing through scenes the night blew into the sun elf dreams
