A fairy tale parcel
an invitation
to be unfolded
as the silvery shadows
of evening deepen
draping us in
the lustrous purple robes
of mystery and romance
the stars are but charms
in the sky
shimmering ornaments
they are
the bracelets of queens
sparkling in deep, velvety
darkness
the capture of beauty and
enchantment
as it is etched
into the sweet darkness
in the sky
praying for 1000 nights
1000 chances
to reach the heavens
as the night remains
uncorked
and dangling….
DArk and romantic.
Thanks, Marissa!
I like this. 🙂
Thanks Jim!
Exquisite, Lana. Just beautiful. I loved the lines: “the stars are but charms/ in the sky/ shimmering ornaments/ they are/ the bracelets of queens.”
Divine in every sense of the word.
