Tethered to your tinsel eyes

Come night and dazzle me with tinsel eyes
let silver soak the water; lend the songs
of moon and stars; amaze me tender, strong.
Massage me soft; let’s dance as butterflies.
Come lightly; razzle me to tingled cries,
let petals roll on frictioned fingertips
please trance me numb; caress me with your lips
let’s fly together let us soar on skies.
Come fright me; hassle me with jingled lies
let’s start all over and undo the ties.

Tonight Lill leads us into poetics at dVerse and wants us to use razzle, dazzle and sparkle… you might dance and have fun in disco lights or you might let yourself be seduced as me… use one or all three of the words and have fun. Pub opens very soon…

  2. The phrase “jingled lies” caught my attention. Now I will have to try to make sense of it, but it did dazzle me out of what I expected to read.

    Sure in for a terrific time. The young people are not over with only once but with repeats all round. Great!

  4. Bjorn. What can I say.
