YOU ARE

YOU LAY ME DOWN AMONGST THE FLOWERS

AND DESCRIBE TO ME THE BILLOWING TOWERS

OF CLOUDS MOVING SLOWLY 'CROSS THE SKY

WHILE I DRINK IN THE GLORY OF YOUR

HANDSOME FACE.

YOU REACH, WITH GENTLE MOVEMENT, TO

TOUCH MY HAND,

I KEEP LOOKING AT YOU, FOR A BAND

OF LOVE IS ENCLOSING ABOUT MY HEART,

NEVER WANTING TO DEPART

FROM YOU, JUST YOU, ONLY YOU.

YOU ARE THE EMBODIMENT OF CARING,

THE GRACE OF THE LOVE YOU'RE SHARING

IS FILLING ME, THROUGH AND THROUGH.

YOU, YOU SEE, ARE SOMEONE UNUSUAL TO ME,

THE REASON THAT I SAY THIS IS THAT YOU

ARE SO GENTLE, YET FULL OF THE TRUTH.

I AM SO DELIGHTED JUST TO BE

AROUND YOU, NO MATTER HOW SHORT THE TIME,

FOR ONE MINUTE WITH YOU IS SO SUBLIME

THAT I CAN THINK UPON IT FOR HOURS AND HOURS,

RESTING HERE AMONG THE FLOWERS.

YOU BEND TO KISS ME GENTLY ON THE LIPS.

I TOUCH YOU WITH THE VERY TIPS

OF MY FINGERS, AND IT MAKES ME SO PEACEFUL,

FOR I HAVE NEVER TOUCHED YOU BEFORE.

YOUR CARING FOR ME HAS MADE ME SEE

THAT THERE IS SOMEONE WITH TENDER WAYS

AND A LOVING HEART, ONE WHOSE DAYS

ARE FILLED WITH THOUGHTS OF ME.

AND KNOWING THIS, AS I DO, MAKES ME

WANT TO BE IN YOUR PRESENCE ALL OF THE TIME,

HOW UNUSUAL YOU SEEM TO BE,

FOR YOU ARE GLORIOUSLY KIND.

MY FRIEND, MY WONDERFUL FRIEND,

I MUST GO, BUT HAVE TO SEE YOU AGAIN.

YET WHEN? YET WHERE? WHAT TIME?

SEE? YOU ARE ALWAYS ON MY MIND.
