to the Lighting bug- -SHINES MY LOVE
My lighting bug, you ignite me to sight;
The way you're blinking bright and soar;
Parading my mind day in through the night;
Always dreaming about the quiet lours;
Let me compare you to a pleasant fly?
You are more active, aghast and playful;
Fast drought dries the cool nights of July;
And moon pitch has the broadcast prayful;
Blinking your shiny torso ever glows;
Brightly flashing white and yellow grows;
Now I must sway with a steadfast heart,
Remember my last words whilst we're apart.

Night’s shadow lours upon the world
And the streets are silent like the
Netherworld—without a single
Morning soul to be seen or heard.
But amidst the dimness is a lone
Lit nest serving toffee flavored coffee,
And as the jukebox sings “Do I Worry” ,
Wistful nighthawks gather to ponder
From midnight to twilight, minding
Only their lonely aloof thoughts,
And to be adrift in surreal reverie,
During this moonlit lull when the
Sun shines bright but in dreamworld.
Note: Do I Worry is an Ink Spots song.

flaming rainbow aloft,
starlight galaxy festoon
once an iron sky,
Tempest equinox,
sparks shall on them descend,
foreshadowed co lours reign force
defy justify defy
Coiled snake, rabid tongue, sermon revoked
preach not your cruel co lours
delivered unto me true co lours
Red and blue embers twisted hypocrite burns
soul restored, recaptured spirit in purple
...this co lour my courage deserves...
