Notes About The Poem

Sponsored by: Nette Onclaud ~ SNAPSHOTS OF A NIGHT SCENE Poetry Contest. ~ Date Written:5/17/2026 ~  4. Meeting In The Dark

Meeting In The Dark

Meeting in the dark,
away from prying eyes.
Away from wagging tongues,
spewing evil venom like a snake.
Our love must go on,
for we are soul mates.
The lights look like diamonds,
your diamond eyes match.
Somehow this view left me,
totally speechless.
