Original Poetry Fan Fiction ❯ The Unlikely Poet's Notebook ❯ "No" I respond ( Chapter 11 )

[ A - All Readers ]
WE walk together
under the blanket of night
You point skyward
"That one?"

"No" I respond

You look around
trying for a second time
you point elsewhere
"How about that one?"

"No" I respond

You look once more
determination
in your darting eyes
"Then it must be that one?"

"No" I respond

"Then which?"
You ask me
And we stop
I turn to face you

"The brightest
and most beautiful
of all the stars tonight
Is walking by my side"
