I've painted a world lighted by two moons colors carefully blended from my artist's brush blues to soothe the mournful cries of loons soft rose from the cheeks love caused to blush To please a new love is my canvas creation no brush strokes can I use to bring him near but when he arrives our love will be sated as two hearts united within an artful sphere Nearest moon on my left, I close my eyes into my canvas realm I bid, send him to me distant moon on my right, before night dies guide him safely over your deep cobalt sea Lunar globes hear me, and you, rough waters, calm your waves so his journey be made swift I brushed you to life. I am one of your daughters rulers of the tides, offer me love's greatest gift. Man of desirous features I beg you to choose free spirited as I but no mere apparition a man who will thrive among my canvas hues and believes in love with complete conviction There is no man a match found for me on Earth faith in the magnitude of your pull and power will give rise to need of my love and its rebirth I wait in your glow to bloom as his flower
