Poet's Honeymoon Collaboration With Joanna Daniels

POET'S HONEYMOON
Pretend we're on a poet's honeymoon
Let's dance atop the Massifs on the moon
We'll get our fill of Milky Way's champagne
Behind a chariot of stars, the twain

Each star a stepping stone of Heaven's rune
That leads down to a luminous lagoon
And when Andromeda begins to wane
We'll take our muses to another plane

Riding on the shooting star, we will croon
Rhapsodying together, hearts in tune
Lost in love, our muses will not complain
As we set foot in Sombrero's domain

Each planet, we'll decorate with festoon
And get drenched in Saturn's diamond monsoon
Once heights of passion with words, we attain
Back to earth, where we can pretend again.

Form: Rhyme (10 syllables)

I like the way you used the descriptive lines comparing being out in space to the out in space feelings(LOL) of being newlywed on a honeymoon. My honeymoon wasn't like what people do today on very expensive honeymoons, but it was not like some who get married and get up and go back to work the next day either. Thanks for sharing and for dropping by my page. Sara
