Faeries in Love
Sea foam green, summer orange, candle flame blue,
Magnificent wings unfurled behind her willowy figure
Delicate as the autumn leaf hanging on a branch.
She took to the air, floating on the rose scented breeze.
Flower to flower she flew,
Drinking the syrupy nectar in the cup of her hands,
Her tiny ruby red mouth, the perfect shape of a bow,
Giggling as she became drunk on the juice of blossoms.
Midnight purple, sun-kissed gold, iridescent white,
Glorious wings fluttered above his petite yet muscular form
Hovering over each bloom with the grace of a butterfly,
He delighted in watching her, looking on with intense violet colored eyes.
Possession and obsession.
A song drifted on the air,
The sound of angels in a time of glory.
Warmth glowed and pulsated with every breath,
A golden hue glittered and hummed through the trees.
He caught her hand as she whisked by him.
Feather light kisses on her palm,
Her laughter tinkled like bells on a string.
Small yet powerful arms surrounded her,
Gathering her close to his cinnamon skin.
She breathed in the scent of him,
Delicious, fresh and inviting.
In circles they wavered, weightless,
Their bodies spinning and twirling,
Until all that could be seen was a splash of multicolored light.
The Earth shuddered with their passion,
Embers of luminosity showered down upon the meadow.
Electricity arced in semicircles
As they winged pair floated downward.
Gracefully landing on the velvet bedding of a petal.
Entwined in each other,
Their sighs like dripping honey
They fell into the melodic slumber of lovers.
