From Now On

From now on I’d keep the window open Look out as long as the failing vision would last See the world’s kaleidoscopic show unbroken Suffuse in the shimmer of the sky at sunburst. The sparkle of grass-top dew on the meadow Would bring the patina of pristine pearls to me The colored cloud on serene sky loitering low Would weave in my mind the tapestry of ecstasy. In the gleam of full moon in the silvery night like a flower petals would open on your face I’d sprinkle on them the stardust of my delight They’d glow in the luster of your gorgeous grace. From now on I’d sit and wait by the open window For the moonbeam to bring your scented shadow.
