I was never told I’d live to see the sunset
And the moonrise so close together.
A twilight smile flickers over you
Brighter than sunlight across water.
I find it so peculiar we’d choose
The same name for a daughter.

I’ll never understand how it happened;
Coming from my childhood slaughterhouse
Into your lovely little home.
With the way you listened to me there,
How could I ever shy from all you’ve shown?

Remember that tiny house, floating on the bay?
It would be enough for me!
Actually, I checked the market around here.
It would be more than I can afford.
What ever happened to our world?
What happened to our words?
What happened to the glint in her white pearls?

These weekends hold adventures
Unlike any I’ve ever known. Well-wishing the
Moonflower my world has finally grown 🌺
