Autumn has her fun
Sneaking up on summer’s end
Dancing in the leaves

Once held so deeply, below the sea
Mother of pearl, beautiful, and free
Washed ashore, on the crest of a wave
She lost her pearl, in a watery grave
Still, somewhere deep, on the ocean floor
An oyster prepares, to make one more
Yes, only from a single grain of sand
Can she create a treasure, simply grand

Perhaps the man in the moon
Is not a man at all
Perhaps he’s just a little boy
One who’s rather small
He likes to hang around by day
In the light, he can’t be seen
Swinging merrily, above the clouds
His expression, quite serene
But, the only way to truly know
Is to awaken from your dream
Sadly, that would chase him away
And that’s really too extreme
So, let your imagination take you
Let the sandman lead you on
Before the light of day appears
And the illusion, all at once, is gone

I watched you as you made your move
You planted your lips on mine, so smooth
Your eyes, like sapphires, sparkled bright
Beguiled me, in the bright moonlight
Extended, your hand reached for mine
You pulled me close, our bodies entwined
Savored moments, tickled with bliss
All from the touch of a feathery kiss
Writing Prompt: A Feathery Kiss – Day 12/30
