Smoky Mirror Eyes
My limerick for a space Goddess Muse, introducing a ethereal alien to fresh snickerdoodle cookies & milk
The Milky Way galaxy is from where you beamed down,
Smoky Mirror Eyes, I was startled when I saw you, there was no sound
You looked funny as you tasted my icy milk and tender cookies, so oddly glum
You took my heart once we finished the dessert, a truly strange added sum
Then in a poof you left, just the crime leftovers of snickerdoodle crumbs settled in a smoky mound

“Home.” It’s a sound I’ve heard many, many times. I wasn’t sure what it meant, but I do know that it scared me. Whenever I heard that word spoken about one of my friends, I never saw them again. I missed my friends. I missed the ball games we used to play, and the wrestling matches we’d have while rolling around on the grass in the garden.
