Endless Satin Night
|
A curtain of silk hung on the stars, Your hair is my endless satin night, Jewels that sparkle from your brow, A diadem of shimmering pulsars, Constellations of your delight, Your Sun and Moon eyes open now. Blazing, fluorescent, hot and cool, Your eyebrows are a curving bow, The arrows feathered with your lashes Flick like larks above a pool, Fragrant flowered darts that glow, Your lily brow, the water rushes. Clouds roll up, your glowing cheek, Swans in flight, your curving ears, Your neck a shoreline, creamy skin, Like bumblebees your dark eyes seek The form that from your heart appears, The love that ravishes you again and again. A midnight tangled forest grove, Your hair enwraps me, my cocoon, A bed on which I lie awake, To dream the sweetness of your love And hope you will be with me soon, To taste the sweet love we could make. |
