Velvet Visions

The sky is a Ruby-lit lamp
A pale blue crystal chandelier
A classical masterpiece folding into a soft velvet dream

Waves crash and clap their hands
Frolicking snow-white feather bowers are tossed elegantly across the sand
The wind whispers secrets into seagulls hearing ears

While I'm adrift, floating north
In a pink slipper of Dom-Perignon
