My Lovers Beyond Compare

I greet you, oh mighty Sun! You who warm us everyone You who glow to make things grow You who melt all ice and snow You are a most mighty one For you rule the sky, oh Sun But my Lover have you seen? Oh Sun, now where have you been? Far stronger he is than you His rays warm me through and through He knows how to “solar” please His heat he turns on with ease At times he warms nice and slow Until I melt, and I flow Then sizzles without a care He drizzles from solar flare He scorches me with his might Defies the coming of night Oh, Sun Prince, can you not see? My Lover’s Sun King to me? Oh, Moon, you send out your beams Enchantress are you of dreams I have named you, Mistress Moon For you make each lover swoon But even YOU can’t compare With my Love! Try, if you dare! Like you, he lights up my night Yet brighter far than YOUR bright Into nights his magic spills Brings to body lunar thrills He makes my wild passion rise To his pull, my heart complies Oh, Mistress Moon, do beware My Lover is much more fair Oh Stars, be snuffed out in shame Your twinkle is not the same As my Lover’s eyes at night Incandescent is his light! They gleam down on me in love When like you, he rides above They engage as he commands, my body with “eye” demands There is not a finer gaze than his eyes that leave a daze Oh, Starlight, you weakened are For his eyes outshine your Star Oh mighty Wind, well you sigh For your strength, I do deny While your gusts can lash and whip and prowess, a soul can grip, My Lover’s strength is much more Than all that you have in store He brings me down to my knees By his breath, a lovely breeze My body you can’t caress His fury makes me undress When he moves, I feel the rush He presses me close, a crush My tresses and every part, he commands with galeful art Oh Wind, you now must subside For from his touch, who can hide? Oh mighty Waves, you that pound that crash with a roaring sound You crest in a foaming spray and leave all in disarray My Lover, breaks over me In waves of sheer ecstasy He builds up a mighty roar Then in tingling crests, I soar He thrashes with might and pounds Till in his white foam I’m gowned When the crest recedes, what bliss, I’m lulled to sleep by his kiss! Oh, mighty Waves, this is true My Love is stronger than you Oh Powers that Be, beware! My Lover’s beyond compare! :) Eileen Manassian :)
