Heavy lavender blossoms, lifted
by sudden rushes of night wind.
Jacaranda, her scented branches swept into
dancing alone under the only streetlight.
Hiding further in the dark, bushes of
kumquat fruits, ripely orange,
tempt me to taste them.
In the deep blue air, first stars create
orbs of light beyond themselves,
glowing hugely in the sultry, silent sky.
