Sighs from his words-she did undress
The taming of her heart
Unclothed within her soul’s desire
'Till night-she did depart
Until the day of dawn began
White flowers in her dream
A gaze upon her garden bed
Unveiled-two lover's screams
Unwrapped beneath the core of heart
The singing of his song
Denied no comfort-in his words
Her ears-he whispered...long
Unspoken then, his long caress…
True love-beheld her dream
Mistaken by her pillow white-
Her knight of armor’s gleam
