Five For You

Last summer I planted five stars for you Twice or so a day,I watered them Winter has come and I'm ready to show you Tonight,I'll make the omelettes While you take a shower, darling We'll postpone the eats And dance a little bit Listen to the rhythmic drumming of your heartbeats While you bury my head in between your twins "I love you,dear," my whispers. Late night chats and a little cuddles on the couch Slow kisses and caresses will do Allow me mess up with your hair Blouse unbuttoned! Ripe wild oranges seen I love everything that sparkles Beauty rightfully possessed! I'll carry you in my arms as we head outside "You see those twinkling five stars? They are all yours, darling. You look alike, sparkling and lovely." You're beautiful,this you know But lemme plant beauty in your mind I swear I'll always print smiles on your face 'Cos you deserve it!
