Living the Dream

Enamored in adulation of your whispering night
I adore charming moonlit sky, arousing doting vibes,
Seducing the peeking stars on incandescent arc
Beholden to romantic flame blazing in your eyes,

Wooing constellations twinkling in an astral dance
Amid outburst of meteor storms, celestial sparks
Knowing that is everything you ever asked for
From tangerine emotions scripted on lovesick skies,

When in embrace of soft twilight, holding my hands,
Deep within thoughts, you fondly fancied about
What it would be like to hear euphony of affection
In eternity of love-song warbling from our hearts,

As we take this evening into bosoms of new dawn
And kiss the resplendent morn in each other’s arms
Living the dream of ruby visions in butterfly nebula
Floating in cosmos on coral wingspans of romance.
