Nature of the Night

Donning upon all of those midnight flares Marked assuredly by the baseless cares Trespassing over the basics of wind Smiling she gives chills to defining send A sophisticated brightness of light Outside the nipping nature of the night Complexion of the evening enters me Over the supreme moon’s sincerity I collapse over the dream laden bed Smelling the damp odor of hearts that bled Maybe the moonlight can affect our hold Heavy breathing envelopes us all cold Burning my eyes by the gazing surprise Secrets holding captive seeing them rise Russell Sivey

Hey Russell !! It's been awhile since I've been on the soup and yours is a page I had to visit. So happy I did as this reads like fine wine, smooth to the mind and tasty to the tongue.
