A Portrait In Pale Blue Light

The moon sat quietly over the horizon
pushing her will on the vast ole sea
we pretended not to see it
but it was all that we could see

There was nothing vanilla about her
wrapped around these candied apple dreams
an allure of pure excitement 
wandering through the deep

a portrait in pale blue light
shining for a world and me
I could sense the colors performing
inside where darkness lie

a promise beheld beside her
a soul the wind would find

Candide Diderot May 26, 2026 at 6:29 PM Vanilla icecream's not bad, if it's homemade and run through with Vanilla Caviar and Wattle seeds, add pulp of passionfruit, BLUEberries, and Manuka honey. The ride down the throat chakra is cool and smooth on this one you've written. Love it. I can feel an Epic narrative rising.

Recipe below for you.

An epic narrative is always in the making
