Black liquid silk,
I bathe in thee,
Dark night immersed...
Tranquility.

I lie here beneath,
A starlit night,
Forever peace filled,
Radiant moonlight.

Within the field,
Imagine my bed,
Black silk sheets,
Starlit head.

The night it calls,
For me to come,
I lie, soul bare,
Immersed as one.

Warmed by the stars,
Wrapped in nights sheet,
I dream I am
Wrapped up in thee.

Until he calls,
A wind doth blow,
To waketh me,
To quench my soul.

This lover of nature,
Perfect, divine,
I sleep till then,
For he to find.

I am the night,
Liquid black silk,
Jeweled with stars,
Heaven's milk.

I long to linger,
Till mornings light,
A falling star,
Wishing through tonight.
