A Night Like This

The wind kept whispering low The moon kept brushing the leaves The rose blushed in its radiant glow Blowing sweet perfume upon the breeze. My eyes were greeted with living dew As it rose upon the gladsome skies That waxed and waned its heavy blue Dancing in the stream's bright eyes. In that very hour she'd come to me With her coy charms and tender grace She was waiting there by the glistening sea With a gentle smile on her loving face. She sang me a lullaby in her arms That warmed up my heart with bliss Love,gladness and death alarms Within this hour,with just one kiss.
