When the night wears rose colored glasses
as you walk in the moonlight with him
the wind whispers sweet molasses
skinny dipping in a midnight swim

When he warms you within his arms
and the ocean pounds against the shore
in sync with rose colored promises
is it really the moonlight you adore?

He disappears with the light of dawn
and your heart aches to the core
was it  the moonlight he too was drawn
or maybe he was just keeping score

Moonlight and rose colored glasses
long stem roses and sweet molasses



A poem is never finished, only abandoned.
- Paul Valery (1871-1945)

I'm thinking that the long stems are on the way?  After making sweet molasses in the ocean...  It's a sure sign that the rose colored glasses, due to a sudden fog, most definitely came off.  Loved it.  Bob <><

Don't laugh now, but I actually have a pair of rose colored glasses, they make the world look prettier.. that has to be a good thing, right?  Love your poems, as always.
