The Orange Moon

Last night
coming home
from dinner
with a friend,
I see a huge glow
in my rear view
mirror.
It is a giant
full orange moon.
It is beautiful.
it followed me
all the way home.
It stayed behind
me the whole
way home.
guiding me,
watching me.
Have you been
watching me long?
am I going in
the right
direction?
As I drive in
silence
I left the radio
off and let the
wind take my hair
and blow it
around.
The wind kisses
my neck.
It feels good.
As I turn on
my last turn
to go home,
I look behind me
and it is magically
gone.
I smile.
Its gone,
but not really
as i look
to my right it
is right beside
me.
Guiding
me
and riding
right
next to me.
It is my co pilot
home.
The comfort
of the orange
moon, makes
me feel like
I will be OK.
And I will.
