Prompt-" Asleep at dawn, dancing at dusk" by RyanBH

Life snuggled under the thick blanket of night,

Savouring the stolen moments of serene abeyance.

From behind the clouds, an argent moon peeked out,

Stroking the sleeping earth with it's silver rays.

Roses, tulips and the vibrant marigolds,

Zealous admirers of the morning star,

Were now dreaming of a bright morning

As they rested in the cold bosom of night.

Yet, there she was, in all her fragrant beauty

The one who opened her petals to the purple dusk,

And danced to the soft melody of a passing zephyr,

Moon flower; the lover of the silver crescent.

In the quietude of night, moonlight caressed her petals,

Unspoken love, tainted by time that would never slow.

Gazes locked, hearts fluttering, they remained,

Relishing, the sweet yet borrowed moments of amour.

When the first ray of light appeared, at dawn,

She was fast asleep, in the arms of her beloved

And those eyes shall remain closed, till she is born again,

To look into the eyes of her argent lover.

I've missed a day in between. Will update.
