Heartbeats and Moonbeams

I thought about you lots last night The moon and I were friends We kept each other company Companions 'til the end I counted sheep to fall asleep It didn't work too well But once I had you on my mind Off the cliff I fell A deep doze then enveloped me A dream state soon ensued A lakefront through a vista The vision was imbued With a woman silhouetted Beneath the shimmering trees Approaching from behind her I weakened at the knees My arms then wrapped around her waist On her neck I placed a kiss She turned and looked right at me Her eyes said "yes" to this Her hair was blowing in the wind I moved it with my hand I brushed it back from off her face Her beauty was so grand We walked a path together It led us to a shore No words were necessary We knew we wanted more Unclad from any branding Hand in hand we waded in And then we swam, three elements Water, skin, and skin A night aflame continued The morning came too soon But waiting for me when I woke Was my old friend, the moon
