Sweet Dreams of Thee

In sweet dreams I walk with thee
     in fields of gold and forests deep
thy hand in mine we wander free
     lost in the counsel that we keep.
From honey'd lips I long to hear
     thy tender musings they impart
and through my veins their course is clear
      to seize my ever thrumming heart.
I lie with thee in meadows fair
      entangled in loves bold embrace
lost in the rapture that we share
      encompassed by thy loving grace.

      In dreams so sweet thy love I know.
      Oft to these dreams I chance to go.
