Inviting Forever

~

Even if moonlight is broken
and wild flowers bloom
beneath a stolen sun
lost in a dawning song,
sung in off key silhouettes
along a chorale reef
drenched in caramel pages
of forgotten ink...

amidst an ocean’s marathon,
waving to popsicle patrons,
melting your smile
in every sweetness now
clinging to shirt tails
of written directions
leading away…

we will find our place
deep within the twilight secrets
on the crest of a 
November whisper
among the hidden forests
and daffodil daydreams…

as evening swirls in
enchanting vistas
painted the color of your eyes,
where lingering stardust 
serenades melodically call
in the echoes of our hearts

inviting forever
to become
one with our love

~
