Bountiful Starlight

Bountiful starlight reverbs with echoes 
that fade but hold a bit of that drumfire.
Raising that whimsical smile even higher,
electric shadows cast a glow on your toes. 

A sound you can’t place in the real world,
music that was bestowed from the Fey.
You wake and long to be whisked away
on a comet’s tail both pearled and curled.

High dollar melody delicately bouncing 
like a wrist wrapped in celestial jewelry. 
With a gaze at the sky’s rippling gallery,
three coin tossed wishes and counting.

Diamonds are on a roll hard as a rock,
playing your high hopes with sure strokes.
As if you really need any kind of a coax,
forever a girl in love with sidewalk chalk.
