Beneath the Sun's Flowered Fragrant Field

To love you in every fairest moment
and kiss you tenderly in pure delight
to yearn for you when you are absent
and hold you closer in shadowed light
love keeps us fondly in a warm embrace
as dreams within the heart become unsealed
passion will become a familiar face
beneath the sun's flowered fragrant field
we'll be devoted when our arms entwine
like tender green leaves hold the morning's dew
in the dawn soft glow your eyes always shine
hummingbirds slow their flight when they see you
the true beauty found in love is so clear
a bond to be until we disappear

I am in agreement ~ classic and lovely. I, too, am a bit of a sucker for a love sonnet ; ) This one sweeps me away, and the song to match makes it even more impactful. Kudos and thanks for the fave!
