You came up this afternoon and
dazzled me light!
I surprised myself! A
stint with you did make things bright!
You came up iced, crushed and brushed; you came in flavoured,
all mint and lime!
Sparkling in sheets of water, you winked at me “Shiny”, Oh mine!
Neither did you let me float nor did you make me bolt!
You made me stir, you made me right!
A Mojito this Afternoon turned the day into night!
To make me flicker with flames as pure as white!!
