The Lovers

The morning sun crests the auburn sky,
The green grass glistens with dew;
The lover sits and ponders why,
should give the heart for True;

And when the sun looms high,
The morning dew be gone;
The lover bids the heart to sigh,
should two become as one;

The sun to set in yonder west,
as dusk the moon shall rise;
The lover seeks to find the best,
untainted heart,  to tell no lies;

The stars have scattered in the sky,
The moon has settled in;
The Lover waits and begins to cry,
for fear they will not win;

And soon the night be done,
and the morning crests again;
The Lover sees that special one,
And happiness sets in;

The sun will set and rise,
and the tides will ebb and flow;
And the Lovers be together wise,
Until there breath doeth go.
