La Reina De Noche; Queen Of The Night
Double Rondeau
La Reina de Noche; Queen of the night
Flowering kin, she's my sister of might
Born of darkness, meaning good things don't last
Sunset to sunrise, then wither; contrast
Her ivory petals; cherish their sight
❃
I blossom too in the heat of my plight
At the end of the day, out goes the light
An angel's trumpet sounds, "Quick, hurry, fast"
La Reina De Noche
❃
My sister's fragrance is sweet with a bite
Lavender spicy equation; just right
A perfume of freedom is mine; thou hast
One shadow's gifting to a paired outcast
Alone in the night hour, I find light
La Reina De Noche
❃
La Reina De Noche, a finders fate
A twilight flower never born of hate
My sister of flora, we are the same
Emerging from the darkness without shame
Timely persuasion; step up to the plate
❃
Of Spiny stems and a creosote gate
She releases the latch without a mate
The angel's trumpet sounds, "Now, own your name"
La Reina De Noche
❃
A walk among darkness; my finest date
In stillness and silence, I wipe the slate
Needing not a party to stake my claim
Or sunshine and rainbows to fit a frame
Inflorescent, I am; I sing, elate
La Reina De Noche
