you stole me from Tuesday
swept me away to Wednesday
now here we are
sipping on a cocktail
of present, past and future
when we sat, swaddled
under the cherry moon that
hovered over shadow-painted mesas
I forgot my battlefield earth
and the sound of my aching heart
do you know the color of night?
I think you do …
ice-blue hues of frozen time
blush-strokes, shades of bliss
undertones of you
shining through
Written in response to Lillian’s Poetics at dVerse Poets Pub. She has challenged us to include in our poems, the names of movies that have won the Golden Raspberry Awards. There are 13 to choose from. I used the following – Cocktail, Under the Cherry Moon, Battlefield Earth, Color of Night, and Shining Through.
Lillian has also asked those who frequent our virtual pub to fill out a questionnaire regarding Open Link Night LIVE. Your input is appreciated. Thanks!
