Nocturne Flame

Blossoming skies whisper a tease

Kissing buds savor a sweet breeze

Curving eager boughs crackle in pain

Brimming in chorus, the lantern burns in vain

Transcendence stains the shadows above

A visual orchestra on the embers of love

In those vestigial minutes of the day

A naked tranquil entwines the night in play

Repentant gaze stirs the passion alive

Sepia and blue dance their shadows in jive

Eloping with the dreams locked in urging vines

Surrendering their waltz to the Nocturne chimes
