PEGASUS RAIN

sitting here listening to the rain
as it pitter patters against the pane
my window frosted though it’s not cold
i see the tip of a familiar nose

body as white as an angels wing
hair as silver as the mountain spring
wings as graceful as the dove

she takes me places
where I dream of

fairies dancing on the clouds
pegasus prancing dancing around
unicorns drinking from magical waters
elves and others hiding among flowers

hide and seek is their game
hidden from sight until night reigns
and day has gone with the passing of time

pegasus and me on a moonlight ride
above the clouds where there is no rain
among the stars in heavens way

i hold her tight and listen to
the sound of her heart
on this night

so blue

she lets me sleep upon her body
as she wraps me in her wings like a mother
i wake in the morning and listen for the sound

when she comes again
she will take me to the other realm
