The Winsome Gate of Winterborne
Uplift the scent of stars from nightshade.
Sprinkle moondust upon unearthly skies.
Portals light up
And smile within.
Welcome to the garden of breathless night.
Swings the cedar from the country porch.
Chiming butterflies verdigris flight.
Charmed in calico dress,
Summer flirts with the best.
Nearby birdhouse-chapel whitewashed with light.
The wicker basket and hallowed bells of bicycle mourn.
The lovers depart at the winsome gate of Winterborne.
Two wheels spin,
With goodbye grin.
The clinging vine, in sorrow, slow waits until morrow.
