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
