Tempting Skies

Greens through candle light
Tempt the sky at night
Throwing shadows from the stars
Fogging up a feeling car

Radio dials leaking
Stereo signal speaking
The sky starts humming
with fingertips strumming the ocean
Waves crashing to a warm palm

Then, calm

Green lands on the moon
Tasting phases soon
Pushing distance to the past
Making summer moments last

Falling from the sky
Into swampy slime
Pressing up against the dawn
Smiling, deep breath, morning, yawn
