A Phantom
Touch
On a breathless night
Stars shining clear
There was a stirring in the air
As of someone passing near,
No shadows darkening
No footstep or faintest sigh
Yet still a presence
A phantom touch close by,
A breath of cold
Across the skin
Words formed soundlessly
"Let me in-Let me
in",
A birdcall slivers the silence
Clouds drift across the moon
The moment gone-as fading notes
Of a half remembered tune
