My Love
Voice like a honeyed ballad of nightingales
Signals the rising of the bright sun
That holds no comparison to thy smile.
Eyes spark with a fiery inferno
That sends my heart into a giddy frenzy.
Thy lips brush sweetly across my own
With a promise of more yet to come,
In a caress as soft as rose petals.
Thy touch like a gentle breeze
Whispering against my skin
Awakens emotions thought to be locked away.
The vision of thy arms stretched wide
Beckoning for a sweet embrace
Offers warmth and safety
And a special place for my heart to call home.
Thy departure is one not unlike
The sorrowful wail of a lark
That echoes through the night
As it watches the Sun depart from sight
And the Moon rise into the night sky
With her serene beauty.
She misses her beloved Sun,
With hopes to glimpse his handsome face.
And perchance reunite in an amorous eclipse.
