The heady scents of night recede, Unfamiliar birds call, plaintively, into the lightening sky, Morning-flowers unfurl, rich and lush and greedy for the heat. Stars retreat, but the moon lingers, proud and unrepentant, Fading, but resolute; a promise to return. In this garden of delights I sit and think of you, so far away, oh, You are so far, you are too far. I close my eyes and dream that you are here with me, Sharing the newborn sun. Coy pink petals unfurl, to a sudden brazen blaze, The day is here, and you are gone with the night, Back into my dreams, I know you will emerge When the thai moon rises, I know that you are with me And I know that you are thinking of me, Unfurling, opening up, reaching out, Drinking in your love.

Just after dawn
The heady scents of night recede, Unfamiliar birds call, plaintively, into the lightening sky, Morning-flowers unfurl, rich and lush and greedy for the heat. Stars retreat, but the moon lingers, proud and unrepentant, Fading, but resolute; a promise to return. In this garden of delights I sit and think of you, so far away, oh, You are so far, you are too far. I close my eyes and dream that you are here with me, Sharing the newborn sun. Coy pink petals unfurl, to a sudden brazen blaze, The day is here, and you are gone with the night, Back into my dreams, I know you will emerge When the thai moon rises, I know that you are with me And I know that you are thinking of me, Unfurling, opening up, reaching out, Drinking in your love.
