The moonlight is topaz
A light that is insatiable
The fruitage an acidulous gold
Full to the brim
A quencher
Droplets alive
Of perfumed fruit
The moonlight is topaz
A light that is insatiable
The fruitage an acidulous gold
Full to the brim
A quencher
Droplets alive
Of perfumed fruit
The aqueous moonlight
floats from heaven
Sober hues and a tender wind
crisscross the sky
A hazel mist melts the faint dew
below the sleeping willow tree
The murmuring water lilies
awaken the egantine
While my white eyes are lulled
under a topaz canopy
Like peach blossoms
As lovely as daffodils
In the purest hope of spring
My heart-strings follow each strum of a harp
Your voice a hypnotic melody
I leap like a cricket
at the whisper of your name
The evening floats
On a great parrot wing
I am comforted
With you by my side
I hold you tight
Like two twilight beams across the sky
In the listless evening
I listen for the last chime of the day
I lie with you
In lavender moonlight
Hand-in-hand we reach our destiny
For a mystical shower of love
