lovers holding hands in sunset
The Cozy Pillow Talk was inspired by a special woman. Written by a Teambooktu Poetry Challenge longlister, Abdulmalik's poem takes us places.

Dusk to dawn I spawn what I adorn,
Coast to coast I fawn upon my lawn,
Reaping forth tons of a graceful corn.

In the air, is a quest for your gust,
Reserved with the hums you entrust,
Befall the twinkles however you must.

Under a cloud came your lightest touch,
With a peaceful croon warbling your clutch,
Casting a spell that guide’s me into your hutch.

Is that artistry right before my eyes?
A painted history no gallerist can price,
A lofty perch that showers down highs.
