A Date with Spirit

I went for a date with Spirit,
Beneath a starry sky,
She led me through the darkness,
Her beauty rent me shy.

Gilded by the crescent moon,
Dressed in a glittering gown,
She filled my soul with wonder,
Her breath the merest sound.

I heard her tinkling laughter,
As she slipped into the tide
And though I lost her in the shadows,
She left her fragrance deep inside.
