Love awakens
and smiles…
“Have you been watching me all night?”
I feign the truth
But, cannot lie
“Yes,” I say
But, it is only because the moon
was bathing you so gently, it’s tide
roused me…
And, though I would sleep,
the stars they sang lullabies to you-
Their song entranced me…
And, yet you were so close
I still wanted only to lay with you
But the night had built a cradle all around you
So, I was fearful to move nearer, too
Love in truth,
I was enthralled
At how each cared for you…
Soon, my lids heavy
I thought it might be my time
Then, to come and rest with you
But lo, the dawn came
and illuminated you
Until you were too beautiful
For me to look away…
Now then, my love she asked
“Would you take your sleep as I am
here with you?”
My reply:
Oh no, not now, dearest..
there is no sleeping to do
For just now God has said to
Me,
I was made to
Adore you…
