Deep Velvet Green

Deep Velvet Green

 

I remember you so very long ago,

A distant memory lingering

In the shadows of my soul:

It seems to fade in the morning light,

It is all there is for now, for me

In the midst of a beautiful summer-

With the sun burning like fire

Across the rippling of the sea:

It is a longing for a song

Haunting deep within my soul,

To sing to only you, my love

Upon dunes of glistening gold:

I shall feel your spirit forever

Blowing in the whispering winds-

In days of deep velvet green,

Along weathered paths of time-

In the blossoming gardens in Spring:

There your essence shall forever be,

Quietly breathing with nature

Ever so tenderly.
