To Kiss Your Lips: A Dectina Refrain
Written for Sadje’s What Do You See # 258,
this is my Dectina Refrain response.
Come,
my love,
lie with me
on the cool grass
beneath the pear tree,
Read love sonnets to me
till I grow warm with desire.
Now the wine has gone to my head
and I ache to feel your lips on mine.
Come, my love, lie with me on the cool grass

Resplendence: Reverse Dectina Refrain
Written for Eugi’s Moonwashed Weekly Prompt – ‘Summery’
Gold

amid the
lace of purple
lavender whimsy
dabble the lush spring grass
while the sun’s resplendent rays
herald the start of summer days
as birds and bees and bugs gently laze
