A Moment In Time

Fragile the stems numbered in their days That dance in spring, in the falling rays Above the hills weathered softly by a mist When shone the first morning light of bliss. That 'tween the thickets wild and coursing air Sprouts a young sweet bud glimmering fair Delicately clasped upon the sleeping fields Gracing springtime's vibrant days that wields. Melodies sweet that in subtle days intrude The white lilies pastured in nature's interlude That in fragrance sweet me swiftly to awake To greet the lilies wild softly as they fall. On the perfect dews at Shelly's delicate feet When a heaving mist like clouds with slow retreat Gathers swiftly in her eyes like an emerald flame As a pleasant little song bird recites her name. In the artful limpid garden 'neath July's sun Which hungers for the sweet of her speech spun Like some magical tone that nectars a soul Maybe her heart is like a splendid marigold. In the fullness of the bright and merry morning In the days when our wondrous God is sunning The wretched world silenced by its deafening grief In forlorn gloomy seasons unclothed of relief. When lilies doesn't wither but rise and bloom By every dreamy river, by every vibrant tomb Its the stillness of her lips I've deeply kissed On sultry dews of bliss, 'neath the honey cypress. Suddenly it all becomes lovable like mild copen Suddenly her hands descends into mines and opens A new horizon of love more glorious than a dream But from breath to breath in fulgent days it seems. The dark clouds will come to extinguish our love But in sultry passion this mighty heart will prove That I'd love you thro' time, stress and life's decay Thro' tears, and the darkest moments of our days. I've lived to see the brightest of brighter moments And to see a falling moonbeam as you smile But the brightest flame in life's magical moments Is honey your love to last a lifetime.
