Dark Of The Night

Dark Of The Night

As the dark of the night disappears 
Through the corner of my window 
You begin to fondle my thoughts
Which makes my heart dance
With a single melody 
You bring a warm burning 
Fireplace cracklings of old 
Cedar wood to my winter storm 
I cuddle closer to my thoughts 
On new beginnings 
And happy endings as I
Take this chance on love with you
I give way to the timeless hold
You have allowed me to sneak past
My own prudent state of mind
You have ironed my wrinkled dreams
Filling my eyes the twinkle of a star
Dissolve my passion with delicious touch
I take this breathless moment to
Blossom in your present beauty
As the dark of the night disappears 
Through the corner of my window
The vision of you won't let go 
Of my of my feet.
I stand wiping my daydream of 
Our early morning mist away 
From my tears 
Loving your shadowed silhouette 
In my memory. 
Spread your lotion upon my flowered garden
With your nourished fingertips 
While I peek at the sparkle of shooting 
Stars sitting in my quiet evenings
Completing this perfect stage
Of unimaginable heaven
As the dark night disappears
Through the corner of my window
