The dark blanket of night cast away
waning moon waved goodbye
morning delicately stretches and blushes
kissed softly by the scarlet sun
shooing away the last of twinkling, giggling stars
she twirls her cerulean skirt
shot with pastel hues,
scalloped with lacy candyfloss clouds.
Written for dVerse. Today’s host, Mish, has asked us to write a quadrille which must have the word candy.
Such beautiful imagery in this piece. Lovely poem.

I like the vision you created with the last lines,
“she twirls her cerulean skirt
shot with pastel hues,
scalloped with lacy candyfloss clouds.”
Great job creatively weaving in the word candy.

Those words, the phrase, “lacy candyfloss clouds” made my day.
I hope you sprinkled some chocolate in the floss.

That kindness was so sweet
It gave me energy and a desire for more
It encouraged me to push away the less palatable things that were on my plate
Like you know what’s on your plate.
We all want the dessert
