The Heart Has Yearned

Wishful and want for not

For I am and happy with my lot

Words come easy when I think of you

Beneath the sky in the evening hue

For in the twilight the heart has yearned

Beside still fires candles burn

So wish upon the fallen star

A thought of you and who you are

One breath in time and you are mine

To taste upon the ebony vine

For there are beauties in your wake

And you are loved before the break

Seldom is it said with harps

The passage written in my heart

And sure the hectored honey sweet

For the one with earthly feet

For there’s light my southern flower

That glistens in the evening showers

Behold the one that takes my breath

And I am sheltered in your clef

Creed gave way to preservation

And I am lost in your creation
