Just for a moment, the world held its breath—watching, waiting. Would they? Wouldn't they? The moment passed, time moved on, but the moon, she remembered—remembered a moment when two worlds collided, paused, then passed each other by.

The highway winds on endlessly, a road well travelled, a road that's both familiar and comfortable. She's seen it all or so she thinks. For hidden in plain sight, just off the path, lies a field of sunflowers. Every time she passes by, they wonder if she will notice them. And if she does, will she stop and join them in their dance, or will she choose the familiar highway yet again?

The sounds of the city fade into the background as she steps out to greet the sun. He responds, glinting through the leaves, bathing her face in his gentle glow. Their sole witness—the lone kite circling gracefully above.
*******
A single white feather floats gently through the air, landing with grace on her open palm. The whisper of a promise made echoes around her. She looks up—tentatively, hopefully. Her eyes light up as her heart explodes with a love beyond compare. She holds out the feather as he reaches for her, a memento of a promise made—a promise kept.
