THE MEADOW

The Meadow

After gleaming candles in the dining room
We shall wander beyond the summerhouse, into the field
And inhale the wines as we pass beneath the boughs.
We shall rove in the potions that they yield
On the sunny, stone path, devoid of gloom.
And as long as the moonlight graciously allows
Our eyes to see the blooms in the reedswww.visionarywanderings.com
We shall hold each other's hand as the tide recedes
In the ocean by the cloister, where a rapturous melody
Shall abide in your gazes, lit by the stars
Which will render its majestic rhapsody
With cello and guitars.

And when the diamond hued night
Transforms the bower into an elysian place
I shall kiss your fair, angelic face
In the bourbon of the glittering, nocturnal light,
And your hair will turn silver, and your look, all of grace
Shall pierce me like a thousand pearls,
On the meadow by the sea
Where the scarlet current swirls,
In our souls and in our sighs,
In the garden of your eyes,
In the vespers of our ecstasy.
