I come to share your wisdom
Your knowledge and goodwill
I come because I heard your call
A folly bared – until
I come to share in melody
And harmony and song
I come because I know you know
That I know I belong
I come to share affection
In a river I’d disowned
I come because that river shares
An image all my own
I come to love and lure
And live in romance found
I come because I have been
For too long underground
I come to build a home
In a village that built me
I come because that village stands
By the river by the sea
I stay because I’ve blossomed
And because this place is ours
Where we’ll interlace our fingers
And spend our waking hours
And when we fall asleep –
On your pillow it will be
Your arm rests on my shoulder
(like a petal under bees)
Like the sipping of the nectar
Sweet new life will fall upon
A subtle nuanced love that goes
On – and on – and on.
