You'Re My Oasis

We meet in the glimmer of the emerald meadow,
you become the placid patina of the pearly dawn.
Even in twilight hour the golden day doesn’t end,
for you’re my sanguine sun that would never set.

While the flowers wither in my autumn garden,
you suffuse the scent of blossoms for the spring, 
when my yearning flitters like beguiled butterfly 
at the still edge of hued horizon that never fades.

In the voyage on tempestuous sea of forlorn life,
I don’t lose course searching for shore of longing. 
I shall reach its silver beach lapped by waves of joy, 
for you’re my alluring pole star that never deviates.

In the desiccated desert over the dunes of despair 
my parched heart never chases the mirage of fervor,
for my soul has found the fountain of lasting bliss
in the delightful oasis that you’ve become for me.
