Talent Orb

~After reading some incredible poetry right here on the Soup~ I dreamt of you today: seven golden hearts beating the sun to dust with feathers in every button hole and two strokes of midnight behind your ears You riddled a universe out of your mouth with words wearing saddles to break out and run while those running after, to harness your light padded their feet in the clouds I wished for you today: eyes glowing green and tinting the air with tinsel in silver caught up in your hair and sun spots to tickle your tongue You broke every boundary in glass and in fire with quick inspiration absorbing the void while the rest flailed like firefly catchers at night with still darkened palms opened wide.
