Moonlit
Tapestry
Silken steps on Shu brocade,
A winding corridor to wade,
Still night, tranquil and serene,
A search for peace, a soul to
glean.
A crescent moon above stone rail,
Through carvings, light and
shadows trail,
Half-closed door, a glimpse of
grace,
Two hearts meet in this sacred
place.
A warmer breeze, a fragrant balm,
Embracing blooms on jade tree's
arm,
Intertwined, they dance and play,
Spring's sweet desires lead the
way.
Swans embroidered on the bed,
Tossing waves of crimson red,
As wine's warmth seeps through
the air,
Love's tapestry weaves, beyond
compare. |
