Nighttime Strolls

The music gently plays with the feelings of the poor

so are the lyrics skinny yet meticulously enough to light the dance

ocular expressions with deep ends to the well of truth

our time invented to believe in the spontaneity that magnetized us into an amorous relationship

If I only had one more day I would…..

Many thanks to Thomas Plummer for the Blue Insights Cultural Prompt If I only had one more day I would…..
