Love’s Chase

Lets run through the shire, green as emeralds

With the grasses swaying in the gentle breeze,

And the birds sing in the trees, love songs

To one another as the setting sun casts

Hues of brilliance upon our faces.

Dance with me, under twilight’s blanket

With winking stars that begin to shine,

Much like diamonds hung in the darkening sky

And bid adieu to the daylight hour,

Basking in the beauty of the coming moon

In all her silvery glory.

She smiles down upon us, dancing now

In the grove, hearts fluttering like hummingbirds

Drinking nectar from the flowers.

Take me home to where legends roam free

Amongst the living souls that gather,

With the babbling brook to speak in tongues

And stroll through the forests, ancient and all

Knowing of life, and of death.

Let me be thy moon, and thou shalt

Be my shining sun, giving chase,

All in the name of love.
