Edinburgh At Night
Tonight I walked across
the abandoned silent city.
A fading moon was pushing
fast moving clouds over dark roofs,
over Edinburgh Castle,
the dark castle,
with gleaming eyes
to penetrate the shadows.
I hear myself walking,
echoes from silent walls
and cobbled pavement.
But you were with me in my thoughts,
a graceful light and entering the darkness.
I saw your smile through hidden moonlight.
The clouds gave me your kisses.
Tonight you were so close
and I felt not alone.
