Today I say down to remote writing brunch with Rhymes with Orange collective. My prompt was a sequinned jacket.
Do you remember that magical night?
Light in my face and you in my arms
Your wit had sparked as you held the mic
But on your torso the sparkle was mine
.
Do you remember that magical night?
Since then I’ve wept tears dusty and dry
Forlorn, abandoned in wardrobe’s corner
Magical night now seems like a misnomer
.
Have you forgotten how I made you shine?
Together we were thoroughly divine!
Come on, comedian, don’t you break my heart
Give your sequinned jacket a deserved new start!
