There is something about a night,
Beneath a tempest net,
As candles light the path,
To secret inspirations.
The pen remains a veracious weapon,
Against an onslaught of sleepless words.
Breathing wisteria laden air,
I imagine languid purple blooms,
Affixed delicately on patient vines.
Every flower bows its head,
Respecting the ardor of the journey.
Swayed by the wind,
They shiver as if stifling giggles.
Passion is on the march again.

I love your use of verbs and the metaphors they create

A captivating piece, deserves a vote .

So lovely.

'Breathing wisteria laden air,
I imagine languid purple blooms,'

Easy to see why 'wisteria' would
inspire the muses to muster !

Thanks very much everyone.

Its refreshing to know that a rewrite has done me some good for once.
