The Diamond Fire Of Moonlight- And You

I had a dream inside my mind...
If you would have loved me when I needed love
I would have known your tender lips of comfort
In my dreams I danced with my tall dark stranger
I know had you been with me, I'd have heard the melody of the song

I walked in the tide of darkness
The cloak of eve crept silently in the shadows of night
And I willed my soul to think of you
I'd have known the secrets of the night had you been with me
Sheltering my soul with your sweet, tender embrace

Trees lowered their limbs to me -mystifying crying
And I - so small and alone had no arms to warm my heart
Again- I willed myself to think of you

The wind with its soft, velvety breath whispered quietly into my heart...
"I am with you"
Then - it secretly stole my thoughts away
The night smiled as it said
"Be patient my lady"

The moon came down and danced with me ...
While the Gods softly whispered...
"Once more"

Then - I desperately willed my trembling heart to think of you
As I remembered your gentle touch
Suddenly - I found you, sweet and strong
And I - in that soft moonlight, I was no longer alone
For there in the evening light nothing else mattered
And nothing in the past was longer true...
But the diamond fire of moonlight and my bright dream of you

Then I reached out my hand and you came
I was safe and loved in the comfort of your love
