DREAMLIGHT

Drench me in your noonday bright

while I wallow here and write.

Surround me with your peach fuzz light,

cast away the shroud of night.

Whisper things old and new

as I ponder what to do.

Hold me in your vast embrace

while songs of Church bells slow my pace.

Love me as I long to be

drip your honey over me.

Fan my flames of ember white

into passion's soaring height.

Bring me back to Love's refrain

purring in my ear again.

Listen to my joy exclaim

returning sorrow whence it came.

Perhaps tonight at dusk's delight,

we’ll imbibe its fleeing light

and raise a glass of ruby red

to savor what may lie ahead.
