Yesterday In Love

Aphrodesiacs 
in whispers
    on the air 
above the terrace.
Who resides there
    in the twilight?
Clinking glasses,
    laughing,talking,
in an undertone of sharing.
      Faceless 
to our silent queries.
Who distills the silver starlight
   into potions 
  heavy laden,
     sprinkled 
with the dust of 
  moonbeams.
   Who remains 
       to see the 
  sunrise.................
Could it be the ghosts of lovers
         down below
  and   lost in sorrow
       for a love
    that used to be?
