Your Voice at Midnight

Your voice
at midnight
trailing off into sleep
sounds better to me than
the best music -
delicate murmurs like
a lost
Schubert sonata, like
the harmonics
of the deep ocean
where the cold current
rolls
off the continental
shelf,
like all my best
memories,
all my best dreams -
warm as the Gulf Stream,
intoxicating as mint
juleps in July,
your face a sweet summer
daydream
made real
in an instant.
