My dear, how sad
you look today.
Put down your load,
come out to play!
The sun is high,
the breeze is soft,
tickling my wings,
carried aloft
I soar!
I see it now
and wonder how
you can resist
another tryst
with life.
The twinkle waits
deep in your eye,
the hint of smile
lingering by,
So why
do you hesitate?
Come closer, yes
and now you see
how grand a day
you’d spend with me
in Paradise.
Spread your wings high,
come with me-fly!
The moonbeams wait,
we can’t be late
this time!
Ocean waves crash
and mountains peak
thrills standing by
for those who seek
them out.
We’ll sip the dew
from a rose petal,
the red of course,
oh why settle
for the pink?
Come along now,
please don’t tarry!
Today is the day
Toad will marry
Miss Frog.
It will be grand,
the pond will sing,
the faeries dance,
the spiders swing
from silken strands.
And then, when spent
we languid lie
beneath the moon,
where fireflies
like
lanterns glow.
Now aren’t you glad
you came outside,
leaving shadows
instead to hide
in plain sight?
What fun to leave
our cares behind
spinning, whirling
our minds unwind!
Shall we do this
every day?
We’ll make a date,
coordinate-
Oh say!
My name’s Whisper.
What’s yours?
