Young Lovers

Gardenia bushes yawn under the moonlight
cool breeze spreads waves of inebriating scent.

Young lovers tiptoed away from parental view
love knows no bed time, no schedules.

Late night hugs and kisses on a cold park bench
guardian angels watch delighted
as they high-five each other, another love-match.

No cold breeze or drizzle can deter young hearts
from stolen moments of loving whispers
star-eyed under the moon-  kisses and cold shivers
as warm arms alley the chill of night-
for these two young lovers.
