Feck the prompt today, just went with poetic spur-of-the-moment inspiration.
Suburban Evening
Pavements sun-baked
glint their day kept gold.
Trees bask in tufted limelight.
Dappled shadows reveal new angles.
Telephone wires underline
the apricot infused score of sky.
Birds, in pairs, fly high,
chasing the long light.
Cherry blossoms beam, pink
in their secret dreams.
Flowers bow their heads.
Birdsong crescendo breaks
as the benediction of evening
descends and a new moon
appears like a silver wish,
a longed-for friend.
