Days of Love
I remember this day
Like the day I saw love
Bless me with eyes of the stars;
The day the sun came down
With a trumpet as rays
As my skin smells blood,
And the sun flooded the cradle
Of my fluttering
With sweet-scented sprays
And the moon lent a smile;
Flowers danced before me,
Birds sang for me;
I watched waves wash the shores,
With an avalanche of water splashing
Over dams, over rocks,
In celebration of our love
