wrought-iron sailing friendships

Stealing sundried secrets,
Whisper-kissing peaches,
Hennaed honey moonbells,
Silver drips from glass-blown leaves.
Swirling snippets swept up-
Curling fragments of 'i love you's,
Fire-fly semantics running rampant in the trees.
Twisting serpents' sun-tongues
Rhyme non-existent toe taps;
Radial oases sing the song of shifting breeze.
