Glimmering licorice waves
Cover the sun in sleep
Unveiling midnight enclaves
And the secrets they keep
Here an insomnious shipwreck
Groans for a guiding star
Fish darting over the deck,
While ghosts look after the sandbar
Where starfish sparkle mid
Night and concealing surf
Written both for dVerse's Quadrille and Compound Challenge
Love those licorice waves. Beautiful poem! 💝💝
ReplyDeleteI like the metaphor you've used here - so appropriate for insomnia!
ReplyDeleteYou had me at those licorice waves!
