Sonnet In Starlight

 

Sonnet In Starlight

Come, let us run in starlight

Whilst the day dreams in her bed

Let us drink the moonlight

As the visions fill our heads.

Knowest not the words I weave

Have power to instill

The joy that love alone may bring

That death tries but cannot kill.

What sayeth thou, O, love of mine

As thine eyes caress my face

Thy fingers tender on my lips

I drown in this embrace.

The man who lovely sonnets wrote

Could never write this poem

He, who wrote of love appearing

To evaporate with morn.

For in this cocoon of love we share

In arms that hold to bliss

I feel what few will ever feel

In this pact sealed by thy kiss.

We run in starlight hand in hand

On feet earth bound no more

All questions answered, all doubts erased

Our love, a thing of lore.

But only we may write these words

That Heaven alone can bring

The music, the lyrics combining in song

That only we can sing.
