36.  There with You

 
It's a pastel neon tourist town
With turbulent oceans of emerald cream,
Vanilla white, willow lined beaches,
Silver starlings singing
In heliotrope peppered coral coves,
Frilled lavender geckoes
With tiger faces
Dancing in the hyacinth breeze.
 
Come, sodium night,
Voices washed in milky starlight.
 
Sweep away the snowy window
With your hands.
 
My darling,
I am there with you.
