Starry Night

Starry Night

The night is saturated with  love's perfect reign,
Calling all lovers to  dine,
The sumptuous mystery of the night.


Oh Universe! Bright Universe!
Express thy deep essential bliss,
Flow  like the rivers golden,
Play on  the whimsical stars.

The crickets keep the starry night alive,
The nightingale breaks the morbid silence.
We (as two lovers) keep searching
for the best in ourselves;

While the stars pour their love on us,
Expanding the  magnetic beautiful.
As we levitate with our kisses and blend with the starry night.
