To Gaze On Beauty
Beyond green meadows, humming birds slow flight
To gaze on beauty as she passes by
When my love comes, she brings a brighter light
And jealous stars dim with a whispered sigh
To be lonely when my lover is gone
As she came to me when my need was King
She filled my eyes, a lushous fiery dawn
And took my spirit from Winter to Spring
Did you not see the sun's red setting blush,
When she took my chalice filled with its pain?
Opened my arms for her passionate rush
And led me through darkness, out of the rain
Oh dear love, with eyes of a darker hue
You tell my heart why God created you
