Butterfly kisses,
Stardust sprinkled in your eyes,
With the moon so silver above.
Catch the shimmering stars as they fall,
Like bright drops of life,
Arcing over the rooftops and forests.
Light up children's irises,
Fill them with innocence and light.
Fireflies and campfires,
Northern lights and dewdrops,
Grassy slopes of midnight under soft footfalls.
Fill the air with precious silence,
Luring the peace from the cracks in stone,
Let it spread like a blanket,
Protecting the quiet memories here.
How fragile is the calm?
This serenity.
Like dewdrops on a spiderweb,
Minnows in a river,
Stars in a reflection.
Night blossoming in the sky above,
Fairy lights dotting the air,
Mist hanging in the boughs.
Serenity's kiss of life.
