To Search the Deepest Eyes

To lift soft eyes before warm fairest kiss
While dreams lay still with red fragrant flowers
To hold love's moment close in fevered bliss
and breathe its magic spell for countless hours
Could hands more tender wrap your fingers slow,
caress your whispered ear with softer sigh?
To linger as soft cries from love bestow
And find heart's paradise when two comply
As we dare to search our deepest eyes
And lose ourselves in silent space between
Not to notice night or red morning's rise
To find our world has turned a brighter sheen

A heart can tether love to its moor
A kiss can move to passion both adore
