Doe eyes closed and lashes lovely
with parted lips you lay,
Darkened waves on white pillows
spread your unbound hair,
Awake, I watched your sleeping face
Finding perfect beauty in the slow breaking day.
And then I knew that love had passed my way.
As the soft morning glow shown on your face
Within its light I saw your true grace
that beneath my fingertips touched.
Then came that glorious music in my heart,
And I wept that this love,
Had been granted to one such as I.
This love that gave her heart and soul to me.
And she while radiant in the early outburst of dawn,
Slept on, as a breeze swept through the room
With the smell of green June,
And I imagined flowers for her hair.
