The Nocturnal Drive

The midnight sky glowed in delight;

Studded with the stars,

Crowned with the moon.

The weather was cold and calm

Embracing the ocean’s spirits.

The gentle breeze blew in timely intervals

Caressing the Lady’s frizzy strands.

The Nightingale played her tunes

Reminiscing the couple’s electrifying union.

The Lady opened her somnolent eyes

Meeting those dark orbs shining bright.

The Duke’s touch aroused her senses

Longing for his lasting warmth.

The Lady’s face flushed with passion

Feeling his drunken kiss on her virgin lips.

The Duke cocooned her in his arms

Washing away all her bygone sorrows.

The nocturnal nature rejoiced in pride

Celebrating the duo’s secret alliance.

The sapphire sky blessed in abundance

For them to be together

In the forthcoming future.
