Picnic and a blanket fortPeacocking his building bent
She prepares the mealy banquet
Shoeless in the moment
Twirl on savouring toes
Spontaneous tangos
Falling angels in the
Blanket's wrinkle
Tipping gently bowl
He tames dragon shadows
On a fluttering wall
Her shiny knight tall

Also inspired by a date a friend of mine had recently where they had a picnic and built a blanket fort. Giggle. Sweet Romance. Love it!
For me, your Magpie brought back memories of my youth, carefree days and nights, when life seemed endless .... and I thank you for that.
ReplyDeleteWonderful Magpie.
considering there is a blanketfort in my sunroom on a regular basis, I can imagine you and your silver knight doing the tango in it. Although, you might have to be on bended knee to fit inside.
ReplyDeleteyou took us to a beautiful place today...it was light and airy and my shoes were off and i could taste the moment, so free.
ReplyDeleteOh, how sweet this is.

ReplyDeleteFrom childhood we rise but tents never dissappoint. They endure and so do the memories.
ReplyDeleteMa
all things being equal, I do like being shoeless.
ReplyDeleteOn behalf of ABC Wednesday, THANK YOU!
Lovely young imagery and interesting form. A series of 'chapter headings' followed by an explanatory rhyming couplet? Worked a treat for me.
