No Nonsense

Bonny orchid, yesterday I longed to see your face 
It's radiance beamed out to me from some unspoken place
Outside on a cold, dark night
A million stars for candlelight 

Then all at once a shooting star line-danced across the sky
Spelling out your name in cosmic ink, illuminescent dye
Once again inside a dream
My memory of it agleam

A quiet picnic dans un pré, music everywhere 
A moment where I caught your eye through flowing windblown hair 
You stood up and led me down
A cobbled path into a town 

We dined on bread, raclette, and wine
You held my hand, yours lost in mine
The moment ceased to exist
When on your cheek I placed a kiss

Then you vanished into thin air
Now all alone and in despair 
I called your name without fail
I searched for you to no avail

Then walked I back the the path alone
My tears fell on the cobbled stone
Sure you no more I would see
But there you were waiting for me

I ran towards you, my arms stretched wide
A warm embrace you then supplied
Not a word between us spoke
We disappeared then I awoke
