Black Orchids and a Gypsy Moth
Black orchids and a Gypsy moth
a purple haze, a velvet cloth
a table set with cheese and wine
two figures waiting to recline
Midnight on the Nature Coast
The clink of glasses in a toast
Crimson lips and silver spurs
a whispered promise - his and hers
stallions stamping on the stone
The stars, the sky, the moon, alone
