In the Heart of Sol
Oh, the mists on the tops of hills sleep
as if cast into skies as gray spells
and the color of magic now seeps
from the breast of the tall earthen swells.
Here the bright eye of Sol shall appear
as he dawns from the Eastern-most sky
with his chariot drawing so near
he makes blue bells forget they are shy.
Oh, his touch tickles reddest rose hips
whilst he winks at the lily so fair
and a kiss on the sweet peas soft lips
all begotten inside his gold stare.
Oh, he chases the chill from the morn
though he's aching beyond all compare.
Oh, his sad heart awaits so forlorn
as he dances in joy on my hair.
Oh, he saves all his best 'till the last
when the twilight unveils the pale moon
and he sighs as he sees her float past
and her beauty and grace make him swoon.
Oh, he waits and he waits to see when
the conditions are all about right
and together they will be again
when she kisses away the daylight.
Oh, he waits for a chance to embrace;
the affair that has been there between
Oh, the mists try to shield his rapt face
and conceal moments he's rarely seen.
Oh, she shines in his heart when it's dim
and she lights possibilities way
and he knows she will dance there with him
if he only awaits that grand day.
