Angel With Butterfly Wings
She came to me an Angel with Butterfly Wings
A Majestic Love
My Lustrous Beauty
My Gifted Poet
My Cerebral Muse
My Celestial Soul
The clown no longer hiding in painted smiles
Ghosts of the former drift by
Caught up in the winds of your breath
You dispatch electricity, it dances across my spine
Abruptly loneliness meets a violent death
Fate, the joker, seems to play tricks
Whenever you try to deny it
Embrace the stare of Love transfixed
It may never return once you defy it
Suitors lined up promises to full-fill all your wishes
They arrive bearing silver and gold
They line up awaiting your lavender kisses
Dumb confidence, they blunder so bold
But you choose to share your treasures with me
The richest I was, for I have thee
You share with me your kaleidoscope soul
The jewels caught, glimmering in your eyes
And your silky cashmere skin, so soft
Your heart of diamond clarity, with a capacity of love aloft
The minuscule rubies flowing through a highway of veins
Your laugh capable of releasing the darkest of souls
You choose to share your treasures with me
The essence of your soul pursues me when you're not there
I see your face, a constellation in the stars
Your shadow reflects in the moonlight through the trees
Your whispers find my ears through the rain
I feel your touch warm me from the inside out
The rhythm of your heart keeps time with mine
You come to me when I need you most
You come to me an Angel with Butterfly Wings
Joy, Delight, Pleasure, Grace,
My Heart, My Love
My Maranda
Together we need nothing but love, ahead of us only time
Time but a stone, which sinks to the bottom
Splashing up rippling seas
In waves we sail, one coast to another
Crashing the shores and careening back again
Echoing in waves throughout infinity
Our names, together, will be writ in water
You wrote to me,
'Love me, do'
I want you to know,
I love you too
