Nightbirds Sing

" and the birds twitter like whispering violins"
                  Quote by - Constance La France

the sensual soft kiss of love
drips like warm honey upon the soul
as a fragrant candle flame
dances in the silent breeze of twilight 
when lovers become dreamers
   and dreamers gather wishes
      in the tender palm of their heart
as nightbirds sing their lover's song
and the birds twitter like whispering violins
to become a glorious symphony
   in a moment of time
wrapped in a ribbon of memory
shared as a wondrous gift of wonder
where lovebirds glide on the misty horizon
two silhouettes drifting away with the twilight
