Night Lights, Spinners of Mood
by Jon Michael Willey → (All Poetry by Jon Michael Willey)
   Rated "G" by the Author.

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

Under the cover of night all caution is thrown to the wind as inhibitions are left in the light and they dive into the mysteries of the night...as always Jon Michael you paint a scene with the talent of your pen.
love and peace, Carole~

Jon,
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,
Sheila

The imagery, Jon, the language of your poetry, the inner rhymes--
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.

Bravo Jon this is a great capture of the magic of the night, I could almost feel myself walking the midnight streets of downtown smiling into the shadows at sights and sounds.
