In Soft Moonlight



   In soft moonlight I come to my lover / she is the fertile valley where I dwell / she is the stars that light my path

  Her mouth is the river that feeds my soul … her eyes the fire that warms my nights

  I am the child who has searched … I am the man who has wandered / I am the lover who has found his way home

  Lie still my lover … you are mine … to taste … to smell … to exalt above all others … the woman I adore
