A Blanket of Stardust

The sunset dazzles with its raspberry hue And dances the Samba upon stirring waves That copy from the skies’ patches of midnight blue While warm winds of late summer caress my face The noise and crowd thins and the world is now ours Even tireless seagulls retire as further south we sail Onward to the quiet cove where we’d play for hours Anticipating no intrusions, birthday suits will prevail Far away are mundane cares, left to another world No room here for worries; all are tossed overboard A weekend of devotion when only love unfurls Is a special time of bonding, always on overload Two hearts beating madly, as persistent love calls Entwined, we lie beneath the low hung, yellow moon While in the hush, soft sighs escape as gently waves fall And a blanket of stardust burst above, as we spoon! ~*~ By: Annalise 12/27/12 For Gail's "Blanket of Stardust" Contest
