Locket (Photo credit: Ευτυχία (Jim is Nice))

The perfect locket
Fine etched gold
Hides your secrets
Deep within
How it shimmers
In the moonlight
Gold flecked warmth
Like sun on skin
And he’s thinking
As it glistens
This may be a way
To begin
Gilt edged locket
Holds your true heart
Should it show him
The way in

    Gold Flecked Warmth, Like Sun on skin… I can “FEEL” how warm that is… Excellent job.
