A Perfect Date

Shooting stars gliding across their stage, the sky silver sparks against a midnight blue a boat carrying us across the gentle ripples of the lake little sprays of water showering us the air adding to our conversations the soft whistle of its coolness enveloping our bodies in an embrace a lone candle contrasting the pools of moonlight casting shadows of gold on our faces lit up by jokes and laughter An orchestra of frogs and birds singing offkey in unison and water lilies with their blooms open listening to our conversations Both of us sitting face to face our hands holding symbolizing a tryst and finally a beautiful symphony playing out of a small music box
