In silence, I await your voice which sings
While watching birds through glass of windowpane.
My heart is yours, in flight upon their wings!
This depth of Love I cannot quite explain!
Some answers touch horizons which are kissed
By rays of sunlight piercing through a cloud,
And now your charm, allure, I can’t resist,
My spirit singing ecstasy aloud!
As if on axis spinning ’round your core,
The earth of you in pull, I’ve lost control!
This vertigo, a whirl of wind and more,
Enraptures breath and passion from my soul!
…….These moments while I yearn your song so true,
…….I feel at Peace since wings fly me to you!
