Mega lumen searchlights pierce
a molasses sky, imitating day
in a window, candlelight flickers
shadows dance in suggestive mystery
light offers the melody of the night
neon spins Day-Glo hues, buzzes
squiggles out spells of enchantment
night walkers strut their beats
lovers steal a slice of darkness
embracing in ebony surroundings
that refuse to share the moment
light plays the etude of off day
managing a reality it metes out
teasing implications we trust
yet doubt 'til morn proves them out
so pout, dance, romance
take a chance while lights of night
spin out a tantalizing mood
love and peace, Carole~
Nighttime does seem so mysterious, doesn't it? Seems like anything is possible. We can wear it like a mask, thus less inhibitions, I think. Great images in this poem. Hugs,

all superb as you entice the reader into the play of light on the
night, where neon spins Day-Glo hues and lovers steal a slice of
darkness. I love it. -gene.
