Inspiration runs from heart to head
Into my hands and onto page
To express the power evoked
A heat that builds even now
At the smallest thought
My lovely one
Gives rise to
You're my
Muse

In silver moonlight's soft and shimmering glow
Fine breeze did light upon the pine trees blow
Sweet music playing, floating, filled the air
And slowly, gently, warm began to grow

I staring, standing, hollow, lonesome there
Did start when chance I saw my lady fair
Then taking hands we two began to dance
With joyful smiles, spinning free of care

A wondrous night, a thrilling blithe romance
It felt so right it could not be by chance
Our hearts on fire that through our eyes did gleam
Locked on the other in happy tranquil trance

So caught was I, I clutched, was this a scheme
A foolish whim, a quaint delirious theme
But then I thought, "What matters why or how?"
"She's mine! I'd stay! I'd die within this dream

The winter not a single leaf had left
It'd taken warmth and sun among the theft
Then left me in the bleak and dismal cold
Where color, light, and joy my life bereft

Then you appeared like fire and sparks of gold
Bearing heat of spring to me you strolled
And soft upon my heart a kiss you placed
You bid my eyes your beauty to behold

Awake my soul and body hot they raced
Your light and sultry form my arms embraced
And vowed that never the cold again I'd feel
Because your sun my winter has replaced

Sunrise, sunset, both beautiful
Dawn and the dusk shine, fanciful
Unchanging at source
Just changed by the course
But the force, plentiful

And so goes the beauty of life
Some days come with gladness, some strife
Unchanging at source
Just changed by the course
Grace the force, in it rife

All my sweetest dreams are filled with you and I
Pouring it out every morning I find want
An ever growing desire and longing to go to
Lists mounting always higher of what I wish to do
To hold you in my arms, simply to be with
Journey every shadow just to find you
Hold your hand no matter what
Be it winter, summer, fall, or spring
Whatever the storm and sunshine does
As long as I know I shall be with
Topaz brown eyes, gaze of my love the
Smile, laughter, and your mouth of cherry
To kiss, embrace, sleep, and dream under the trees

Sometimes saying bye
Burns with such pain it feels like
Blisters on my heart

My lungs feel empty
Like floating in outer space
You’re the air I breathe
