To Sleep, Perchance To Dream

To sleep, perchance to dream
And float on clouds of cream
Then dip in passion’s stream
And bask in sunlit beam

To lie down in flowers fair
with butterflies in my hair
With love enough to spare
With joy I’ll lead you there

I'm your fairy dressed in light
Your kisses to incite
Drench you in pure delight
Bring pleasure to your sight

I'll dip you in honey sweet
Your love is mine to eat
Euphoria is my treat
Your desires I will meet

Your every wish: my command
I'll let you guide my hand
Bow down to your demand
Love's language I understand

Close your eyes; drink in the sound
Love's rhapsody’s all around
Your body to mine, I've bound 
Our love making does astound
 
To wake, perchance to see
You lying next to me
Forever you will be
My waking fantasy

Eileen Manassian
