Black - DARKNESS in the night sky above tinged with PURPLE hues, Black - NIGHTINGALE singing in the swirling shadows of a GOLD moon; Black - MELANCHOLY scents that drift with the swirling GRAY clouds, Black - TASTE of the lingering cool LAVENDER breeze of day; Black - VELVET inky night sky like RED silk caressing, my skin. (Darkness, purple, nightingale, gold, melancholy, gray, taste, lavender, velvet, red) ___________________
Darkness and purple swirls entwined and entangled in the night sky, And nightingale quietly stirs and under a gold moon begins her song; The melancholy sound floating among the gray walls of homes, Oh the taste of dawn touched with the azure lavender of the sky; And the velvet of night creeps away until the red sun will dip again, at the end of the day. ________________________ October 13, 2015 Poetry/Verse/Black Sky Copyright Protected, ID 15-716-911-0 All Rights Reserved.
