As I Recall

As I recall,
The moonlight was falling over me on that night.
The night I saw the stars as angels.
It was the night when the wind sang,
And the softest sound a joyous shout.
As I recall,
It was the night when I danced in the rain,
And the sunshine danced with me.
It was the night when the crickets played for me,
And the trees whispered gentle words.
It was the night when my eyes were opened.
As I recall,
It was the night I found faith.


The author's comments:
I was sitting on my chair and looking out the window, and thinking about how it would be so nice to be able to put my whole self into believing in something, and having faith without questioning. I wondered how it would be to never get burned and how the world would look. It took it's own life from there.
