Night Drapes Slowly
Night drapes slowly around velvety skin
and gives comfort to an unfolding heart
As passion's eyes enclose time, we begin,
to foster love, so it will never part
The quiet vaulted sky reflects moon's glow
and overlays your face in silken gold
That keeps your smile like a frozen tableau
Gentle to my eyes, so that they may hold
Lost, descending in a world uncovered
Two journey to the center of souls, still
To seek delightful peace, undiscovered
and complete the emptiness they fill
The morning will pour across lighter gray
As shades with clear boundaries slip away
