Dainty dreams
The glow worms scuttled through the dark,
Leaving a glitter of light and spark
heart waited with bated breath,
to see the sun hug the earth
On the flowing blue sea the dainty dreams sauntered,
Longingly looking at the orange clouds gathered
Though the splash of salty tears along the lids flowed,
It ebbed when the light of dusk on the sea shells glowed
Somewhere along the journey, along the high and low tide
The warmth seeped off and lay cold on the side
Little hopes bubbled along, sometimes feeble sometimes strong
Edging off mirages, clinging on with patience for so long……
I love your choice of words, Di! Beautifully woven!
