Were you a rose blossom

And I the scent of your rose

How wonderful life would be

floating around you.

Glowing on your bosom,

Unsplash

Enchanted by your brilliance.

Were you a rose blossom

And I the scent of your rose

Were you a song’s lyrics

And I the melody.

That would glorify our day

Your beauty so desirable;

The night trembles with chords

Sweetest harmony

Were you a song’s lyrics

And I the melody.

Were you the highest cliff,

And I the first morning light

Your cheeks I would then brush

And paint your lips

With my first morning glimpse

And the last sunset greeting

Were you the highest cliff

And I the twilight

But you’re Princess of Far

And I, a poet;

Even my hymns radiate

Of love and yearning,

- The Firefly for the stars -

That leads me to heaven

You, Princess of Far

And I, a poet
