The artistry of Boris Vallejo
My Nubile Fawn and Me
(Reading by Richard Lee Orey)
'Tis the image of a nubile fawn
In the shadows of my day
Her eyes the kiss of serenity
That will never slip away
Spellbound by the vision
Of ethereal beauty and heart
I’m drawn into a pool of unity
And my promise ne’er to part
Some moments live forever
Ablaze in mind and soul
Stirring the heart and streaking the cheeks
In love without a goal
Our sun sinks slowly in the west
In a sea of orange and pink
As we embrace heart to breast
In God’s everlasting link
Time stands still and never moves
As we linger eye to eye
Swept away in a magic moment
One soul, one being, one sky
Succumbing to desire and need
Reclining on a bed of lawn
Passions soar ’neath our graceful willow
With loving from dusk to dawn
Flowing and urging and building
And climbing and soaring with joys
Our sacred loving movements
Express a saintly poise
Exploding ’cross the universe
In furtherance of God’s design
Two souls as one in unity
His purpose to join and align
We shared a love and life, we two,
In unison and trust
In time our flesh and blood on earth
Returned to nothing but dust
But our souls are one with God
In the presence of His heart
And now forever in heaven
We know we’ll never part
We share our love in the House of God
My nubile fawn and me
A gift from our Creator
For all eternity
