Dreaming of Love

Dreaming of Love


Of delicate pink rose of love, I dream
Gently caressed by sun above, I dream

Gurgling brook speaks softly to my reflection
Seek other face, only mauve sky, I dream

Green filled branches of trees, dance with the wind
Swaying, in mind, I move with thee, I dream

A figure of clouds moves across the sky, I
Reach, unattainable form dissolves, I dream

The brown fertile earth gives birth to all I see
Talisman of life, thighs come alive, I dream

Faint shadow by the flickering fire, restless
Sleep, I reach for my desire, true love, I dream

Diana, dweller in the woods, sure today
Her true love comes, welcome beloved, I dream
