Lingering on the edge of light

on silver-shining sequined streets

footsteps fainting, falling night      

grafted gardens of colored pleats…

Rhythmic rifts of clouding skies

cadence tripping light the tune

lullen mists waltz olive eyes

I dance her earth and she my moon…

And in the tranquil ruby glimmer

rain descends in mothered pearls

she glides across the earthen shimmer

in seabird songs and lilting curls…

The metre and language here are lovely, and the alliteration in the line - "silver-shining sequined streets"; beautiful to read :)

Beautifully crafted write , dances on the page as usual . Love these lines so
And in the tranquil ruby glimmer
rain descends in mothered pearls
she glides across the earthen shimmer
in seabird songs and lilting curls…
