The Supple Smile of You
I have seen many a moon come and go
from harvest to winter back to another new
her glows have brought comfort and warmth
watching her dances across a faithful sky
Once barren cherry trees now blossoms
busy honey bees bond with her beauty
a red robin sings along in a sweet harmony
as the springtime winds scatter her soft petals
Looking out to the green rolling hills in distance
where we used to frolic and dance abound
a young couple is holding hands and searching
for a perfect spot to lay amongst the wildflowers
My heart beats stronger as tepid thoughts roam
stopping on an etched memory the supple smile of you
I wander for hours in the pools of faraway eyes
and wait for a chance to hold and caress your soul
I can't remember the last time, but stars shone bright
The moon said hello, good morning, then hello again
I can't remember the last time, but waiting has to end
In case you forgot, in case I forgot, time it hasn't stopped
I don't want to sacrifice another day without saying
a day without holding you and not letting go
breathless moments at the peak of their maturation
where honey dipped hearts live on a breeze
Moons come, moons go, love tries to slip away
Truth be told this loving heart is here to stay
