Ode to the Jodhpur Sky

O Jodhpur sky, vast and wide,
You sparkled late in starry light.
Your silence so deep, 
Made my longing heart yield with ease.

Pink and purple in the vesper,
Yellow-orange at dusk, so tender.
You guide and embrace my texture,
My soul wrapped tight in your rapture.

I declare my love to you, 
My lips await your touch so true! 
My hands & height - so small, so slight, 
Will you accept my love, my light? 

You stayed with me forever, 
You rained when I cried, 
You turned dry when I ached, 
Is it pity or your love infinite? 

I fear to leave - will you miss me? 
Or will I lose you and Jodhpur's key? 
Will you hide and forget me so fast, 
Without a tear, as I fade to the past.
