I dance
to the sound of your voice
and I follow you
same as the moon’s shadow
follows the mountain
carried by the night.
*
I think
of beauty,
of a budding willow
surprised to see its face
scattered upon springtime waters
within the sun’s beams.
*
I sleep
inebriated
with the sweetness of your love.
You wake me up to wipe off with kisses
the dizziness of last night.
*
I love
because you gave me
a key to hearts,
to a treasure’s trove of dreams,
and I burn candles
in the magic circles
between skies and ground.
