Six Days

As cloak draws shut and startled diamonds fly,
While silent kisses soften whispered love,
A million couples gazing at the sky,
Do wish on wishes dancing up above.
A fluttering of colour bathes white walls,
And faces deep in staring take reprieve.
Some way to reassure the truth still calls,
So lovers wrap arms tight and never leave.
The music plays it's soft and soulful part,
Red lantern shines on scribbling writer's hand,
Thoughts of beauty soothe a lonely heart,
Whose twin is in a distant frightful land.
No more a suiting gift could I then find,
Than I for you thrice, body, heart, and mind.
