A Love Song

Oh my Love! The throb and thrill of my life! Why remain so elusive like will-o’- the- wisp? Why vanish quickly like a delightful dream Why fade out like a symphony sweet? Won’t you come to me to ease my pain To herald for me a new dawn To transport me to worlds intangible To be ever with me as my guardian angel Hold my hand when I am about to fall Help me set new goals when I am lost Make me laugh when I am low Infuse courage when I develop cold feet Show me dew drops that I can see diamonds Feed me with home fare that I may taste Ambrosia Gift me a rose that a thousand blooms instantly burst open Talk high of me that rainbows may arch around my sky Why take your glance off, if you do so, I will wither like a flower If you show a cold shoulder, I am sure to grow frozen inside If you speak roughly, I would hear rumblings of thunder in my ear If you turn your back, my heart will break into shards Like the setting sun nose diving into the depths, Like two streams that flow and merge as one, And travel miles to run down to the sea Let us plunge into eternity to be in love ever and anon!
