A Balmy Evening

Beckoned by the bewitching brook
my dotty soul followed dancing
dancing down the alley to the brook
my crazy fancy hooked me there.

The bidding sky dressed in twilight
blushing, she bashfully awaits her demon lover
for day long she sat knitting her gown
Dare! Jinx her ineffable beauty.

In a jiffy did he steal my attention
a gust, hugging me, kissing me
twirling my hair, brushing it against my face
naughty as ever, ne'er will he change.

He moves away humming softly
he dances, he whistles, he sways
swept my scarlet scarf
waggling impishly into the brook.

Hurriedly I grabbed my scarlet scarf
lo! watch her, the gorgeous lady now in her jewel studded gown
romancing with her demon lover
she is lost, she is rapt
this mirror flowing endlessly beneath her, paints it live.

Twinkling stars and glow worms reign the night;
competing against each other, not letting the darkness swallow the ecstatic sight.

Oh Time! Please please wait.
Pause! Stop there!
