Note: I wrote this poem in response to the prompt 'Write a rondelet' by Her Heart Poetry (@herheartpoetry on Instagram). A rondelet is a French poetry form.

That one moment
Quivering lips, frostbitten heart
That one moment
Hands gripping a tiny altar
Sweaty brows, oceanic eyes
Moon-soaked words, soft dread, crimson cheeks
That one moment
