Luminous Venus

Lavender moments after the sunset Unhurried glow blends in dark of night Memory of the day draped in shadows Invisible photons waltzing too bright. Neon blues in promise of cosmic.love Obscures an evening of nameless stars Usurping the sky, a shining goddess Sensuous fire chisels the path of Mars. Vision luminous in a moonless gold sky Enticing soft, frolicked her marcelled hair Nuzzles her lover, they are galaxies apart Untethered his Venus, breaths they share. Solemn stillness celebrates everywhere. Dated 12th May 2021 Sponsor Matt Caliri Contest Name Planet
