To lay my head a moment ‘pon his chest
a serenade of two hearts intertwined
that takes us far above the restless night
where only heaven waits, we move as one
I’ll count the stars shining in his eyes
and know each wish was only that for love
Each breath between us sweet,
precious one…
hold me close as the night sheds her dew
To wake to pale white lilies standing tall
and buds upon the vine glistening dawn
to catch each falling tear, this dewy morn
silky and soft, yet warm, as he is near
then join him half awake veiled in our dream
where wishes still shine in loving eyes…
