The Beautiful Aquatic Menagerie
The vermilion and sangria sunset sets across the sky,
mockingbirds land gently on barren branches as they fly-
Twilight ascends and all is ebon in the darkened night,
the frangipani bushes glow as the moonlight shines,
pellucid stars sparkle with crystalline and romantic light.
Ripples in the reverie surface the relishing tidal shore,
for it’s always been this aquatic menagerie that I adore-
Ancestral generations of marine animals gather with emotion,
luscious and beautiful angel fish dance under water,
as the night does infuse with affection and sincere devotion.
