This Moment Is Poetry

A Poem

The sky in your eyes
I’m f l y i n g
diamonds and rubies
quartz shimmering
in moonlight
fine dining, red wine,
sipped s l o w l y
fingers tracing
stained glass rim
caution dropping
pulse racing
breath quickening
lips touching
s k i n quivering s k i n
touch beads leave
drenching beneath
falling clouds forming
sunlight creeping in
insides fluttering —
butterflies, butterflies
flapping wings,
softening pillows
waves in the distance
rolling and whispering
stay in this moment
for this
is poetry

Wild Flower (Jess Banks) is an Australian-based writer. Recently returning to Medium after a long break. A lover of coffee, chocolate, and sun. Peeling layers of herself and openly writing about her faults and triumphs.
