he wore his strobe light
to precise his own sight
incising surreal
into a savoury byte
she wore lightning cloud
it fireworked the shroud
the diaphanous shield
of cataract crowd
they met late one noon
not a decade too soon
their time in half life
when lit by half moon
they laughingly shied
and together they cried
out relief of their failing
when hopeless they tried
synchronisation
endless illumination
their timing instead
fuelled love’s fascination-
of dark with the dark
love’s company,
divine spark…
Yes yes and yes. Your poetry is at another level! I love your word choices and rhyme scheme! Fabulous
