Velvet Strands

To you my loving poet My only true friend Speak to me of color Where lilting songs begin Twine me in your epiphany Drown me in your muse Take me from the worrisome worry Where euphony transcends Drown me in your cleansing rain Upon the shifting wind And place my heart in velvet strands Over and over again Reflection- 'Ere the sun sinks And thy love falls endless May this moment pause in beauty To ponder thy kisses My scarlet rose of love Betake my spirit truly As twilight falls gently At last my heart sings
