The Morning Light A silent sun-set begins its journey into the night. Peeking little bolts of orange, and golden rays of light… Sheltering peering eyes focused with enchantment as papaya trees sway, beneath Mauna Loa’s rouge light… The sea sings its rhythmic melody, against white sands and rocky shore While dolphins play as spirited children, near the ocean’s floor… Our thoughts touch and glimmer, at the lighting of a flickering torch Our shared feelings are warmed and chilled, across a grassy porch… In the palms of my hand I rest your delicate features, While pressing our lips together, to become that evening’s creature… The scent of ginger and exotic tropical is whispering at the night air As a cool breeze swims in off the ocean, echoing through your hair… Gently we press into the night, into dreams of cotton candy, Where dreams are real and life is not, where reality is a flute of brandy Until the day is new and waking is too, and a melody is true, cooing a breath of the morning light, me and you In the morning light… |
