Perfect Moment

Rode home at dusk 
breaking through 32 degree still city air.

Deep blue velvet sky intercepted by 
occasional pinpoints of starlight 
and low flying bats over Merri Creek.

Crosshatch of gravity-prone power lines 
and incidental houses boasting lurid Christmas lights.

Clack of cutlery and fragments of conversation 
from open doorways.

Feeling spectacularly insignificant, 
no attempt to capture moment with inadequate image.

Suffice to say 
perfect moment 

sometimes I really love this place.
