River Goddess

Eyes like a river goddess I named her Osun In her underworld kingdom Reflected by the full moon Sometimes I understand not her erratic ways Her wit or her obscure wisdom Abandons the ways of her fathers And became a beliver Christian Elegant damsel the best I have ever seen If beauty was art Then you re the artist rare perfection Coincidence are not based on chances They are nature’s fair selection You are the angel that guides me to the celestial light You push me further and further To where the sun shines bright Your Companionship uplifts me while My foes underestimate my might I will appear and disappear in thou sight Since the day I was born into this world I never met such an incredible being Came from the New World but I mistook her for an indigene of Spain We tarry then plan to marry in the August rain And then settle in Colorado by summer Got to a lake where we met a lonely drummer We argued all day about the society and politics Your argument went on with jokes and laughter And we had so much fun days after As your face shone like the moon And glowed like the sun I know that one day we will be together as one.
