A Valentine Wedding
Your whispered breath, invites a place, for me to rest my heart
Your touch could warm the coldest heart, and break the ice apart
It could incite the sun to keep away, and tell the moon to rise
and take me far, beyond the place where heaven's gate resides
Your hands are guided by the dawn, before the morning comes
Content to hold the night awhile, within your gentle palms
I beg of you, suspend this time, and keep this moment ours
Delay the sun, and keep the night, for I must keep the stars
The dawning sun lays softly still, upon the golden hill
No softer than a white moth's wing, ...in the light, upon the sill
For the breath of love you share with me, is more than I can say
The depth of love I hold for you, ....will keep the sun away
