My Sunshine Heart and Moonlight Love

Good morning my sunshine of heart
How glorious you look this morning
Bright and shining nothing can compare
You give me joy my heart is light

Your warm touch gives me that feeling
That always makes things better
You banish all that darkens my thoughts
I am light on my feet I can fly

Good evening my moonlight love 
I sail into the dark smiling and knowing
You my moonlight love will be there waiting 
to embrace me with your glowing love

I lean forward and kiss you
The shimmering light of your love
Surrounds us as our lips touch
My heart radiates like the sun 

Your smile is my light 
It chases my dark clouds away 
No longer do I fear the dark 
For your brilliance surrounds me

In this life we love and live together
None can do us apart 
Close your eyes I am here
My sunshine heart and moonlight love 


 Collaboration with Edward McCall
