Stargazing

One evening, we will drive
down this road I know well.
It will be long, but at its end
is a place where no city lights
will interfere, because few people
ever go there, a perfect place
for just you and I.
We will find a spot,
spread our blanket, set pillows down
and lay down in the back of my truck.
The only sounds we will hear
are those from nature herself
as we lay close.
We will gaze at the stars,
millions of them, twinkling down at us
some even wanting us to wish upon them
as they fall from their place
in the heavens.
No matter how many
stars we see, one thing is for sure.
The amount of light they shine
is no match for the amount
of love inside the hearts
of those who stare upon them
from where we will be that night.
