Of Love and Dreams

 

~ Of Love and Dreams ~

 

I've always dreamed of idyllic things

Cornwall in Spring, wishes on wings

I care naught for castles and kings

just a knight, with a heart that sings

 

heaven on earth, such a place exists

lovers know it, from the moment they've kissed

their world transports into moonlit mists

prose turns to poetry, romance insists

 

here is the deepest secret nobody knows:

- they say love comes, and then love goes

well, it's those naysayers I oppose -

I believe love, true love, only grows

 

the birds know this song, follow their trill

the bees will help guide you, they've fate to fulfill

the moon and the sun and the stars all thrill

our coming together has been their will

 

yours is the light by which my spirit's born

and it's that purity of love which we shall adorn

 

there will be no greater love story than our memoirs

you are my sun, my moon and my stars
