In your life, in moment sweet sublime
Air fragrant with rose and wild thyme
Love will knock softly at your heart
For such is her way and her art.
Heed her call or she’ll not stay
But leave; and you, in cold break of day
Wonder who slept with you last night
And why but now your passions excite.
Too late it comes in morning heat
For by she’s passed. Now incomplete
You yearn to have that chance again
Yet loves sharp sting dwells deep in vain
But take sweet love when soft she taps
While round you wings she gently wraps
And free, your soul, your bliss will leap
From cobalt sky to ocean deep
Beware you of those wings that hold
Therein hide spurs of stinging gold
For love gives all and nothing too
Will steal your hope, yet hope renew.
She called on me in autumn pass’d
I fought, but let her in at last
And in came she, sweet aspect fine
Of vision perfect, of soul divine
She talked to me of dark and light
Caused love thought dead to reignite
Her kisses roused strong passion deep
When both lay down yet not to sleep
Our minds together flow as wine
Our skin with passion’s dew refined
The links of faith that bind our souls
Were forged in truth, life’s glowing coals
Togetherness that’s rarely seen
Sometimes yes, more oft a dream
We walk together toward the sun
Our joy so pure, we are as One.
In she whose arms I trust my fate
Is succour, hope, my love’s estate
And freed; our hearts will stay the test
We are at peace, forever blessed.
