One Starry Night in the Pit - Inktober 2018 day 24

One Starry Night in the Pit 

There was a night of cloudless air, 

With stars the sky did fill,

We went on an adventure there 

While lying fully still.

With dampened grass against our backs,

Immune to evenings cold.

We needed no provision sacks,

There were wonders to behold.

While prone in place, our hearts did race,

At the world laid out before us.

Enchantment danced on a tear-stained face,

And a passerby ignored us.

It was there, in a world we made,

An adventure, light and languid, 

We spin our dreams and watched them fade,

Took time out to be candid.

From this simple, magic night,

I’ve wrote you clever rhymes.

So if your stupid soul takes fright,

You’ll remember sweeter times.
