Reverie
Tonight, I am alone,
lost in a dream,
and the dulcet tones
of Grappelli’s violin
glide lazily across
the twilight of my mind,
an infusion
of elegance
and passion
that reminds me
of you. Now,
your memory lives
only in the whisper
of blues in the night
that touch my soul.
Tonight, I drift
on Stardust
