Naming a Hurricane

A morning in a gown of mist and dewdrops
Blankets my world with her warmth
I bask in her torrential shower of love
And slip into her tropical depths 

Last night we shared a dream to a distant shore
Something in our hearts that only love can reveal
An untouched paradise for us to soar
In search of its first lovers’ feel

You’re a question waiting to be answered
A strong vision in need of a visionary
And to you – I vow to always speak the truth
I pray to fulfil someone so extraordinary

The heavenly sight of a thousand angels
Circling as you descend on the wing
And there in the eye of your perfect storm 
Your rumbling praises I will sing

And as you land – I worship at your feet 
A hurricane off the scale – your name reserved 
My sunrise there in your stormy eyes
A vortex of love on your hurricane wind
