Midnight Serenade

You are plucking your guitar  
in the silence of the night;
And as I flip curtains 
from my windowpane,
I caught your silhouette 
dancing with the melody
of your husky voice.

With the same old song
that's in my heart 
I begin to sing
in unison with you
and the orchestrating cicadas 
behind us.

Infinite colours~ 
of cosmic sounds and sights
midst the sparkle 
of the starlit sky hail~
as my silhouette joins yours
to sing and dance 
forgotten rhapsody of love.
