Forever in your eyes
Am I child enough, my love
To fall with you, in the wild grass;
Breathing your dandelion scent upward,
Into sunblankets of puppied love
Can I learn a softer language
Then your stars on tippy toes
Speak,
Watching your evening shadows
Tall, with forgetting the long hours
As
Into the shock of moon I fall
Your lips secret professed
with their strong liqueured press
Dripping into pages
Awakening again the lavender smells,
And incense springs, of lilac mornings
Awaiting your roses to unfold in the first
Rays of touch
To sleep again ; new with you,
Tucked in each others hearts;
Till ever is a tiny word;
forever in your eyes
To fall with you, in the wild grass;
Breathing your dandelion scent upward,
Into sunblankets of puppied love
Can I learn a softer language
Then your stars on tippy toes
Speak,
Watching your evening shadows
Tall, with forgetting the long hours
As
Into the shock of moon I fall
Your lips secret professed
with their strong liqueured press
Dripping into pages
Awakening again the lavender smells,
And incense springs, of lilac mornings
Awaiting your roses to unfold in the first
Rays of touch
To sleep again ; new with you,
Tucked in each others hearts;
Till ever is a tiny word;
forever in your eyes
