Dark and dewy in a drizzly cold evening
He loved to be cherished
In the shadow of his thoughts
He imagined a pleasurable dream
With restless whispers and moans
He is lying under a willow tree
In peace
As harmony of the sea
With a smile of delight
He reached out to her with adoration
Without hesitation
She stepped in the warmth of his affection
He tumbled like a leaf
The hidden moon glanced down sharply
Stars twinkled overhead in a half-cloudy sky
The breeze calming
And the bliss of love began to stream
She smiled softly
All of the touch
The laughter
The whispers
And the secrets in their glances
Faded away into the sunset
And the night despairingly left the love nest
For the morning to rise above
With the oasis of serenity amid troubles
