JC Brul Poet Free verse

Amaranthine

lightning dances~
into cosmic strips of light
illuminating moonless night
as his silhouette sails with hers
succumbing swiftly
into each other's spell
in interlude of idyllic impasse~

as they merge 
into the abyss
of amaranthine darkness~
thunder orchestrated 
a grandiose finale
