Ocean’s Serenade
Lulling waves caressing, crash softly on the shore
Melody a peaceful droning song of life
Ocean’s scent heady, comforting languor
A pairing of such perfection, husband and wife
Lovers movements, synchronicity
Sound and scent wedded, perfect union
In rain and sun the song remains simplicity
Ebb and flow without end, never oblivion
Our lovers song, it woos, seduces
No one’s besotted soul escapes
No other lyrical, fragrance satisfies or infuses
Lifelong longing for their seascapes
Upon returning from afar
Cacophony of emotions fill the heart
Long lost friends, these lovers are
Shared love story from the start
The ocean shares her life-force, secrets
With all who dare to draw near
Her spell tempts and caresses our senses
And thought be but far always we hear
The ocean’s serenade
Moon
In light you slumber hidden, secure
Away from sight, but never absent
Your influence on land and shore
Patiently waiting your time, content
At twilight seen to rise, awaken
To chase your love, your desire
She runs from you yet your still taken
By her light, her warmth, her fire
Elusively you search the skies
But cannot find her there
She teases shining on your face, your eyes
You’ll keep pursuing fully aware
O moon, infatuated, you love her dearly
Love’s only chance to catch its mate
Just on occasion will you touch her nearly
Forever longing, suffering your fate
O moon, how desperate the sadness
Your lover sun elusive evermore
Eclipsing love, all fleeting moments
Though bound, a marriage, you endure
O knowing moon, never to catch your sun
Your light, your sun, your love keeps running
Always apart as two, not one
You beam in darkness, and she in light, both stunning
Sun
A beauty in the sky so brightly
She’s warmth, gives life and shines the moon
Sun in pursuit of her lover nightly
In disappearing day light all too soon
Be nothing hidden in the sunny day
Sun cannot find her moon, her lover
She shines her light, keeps him at bay
Her love, her eyes shining for him, no other
Sun sees moon’s face each day, dusk and twilight
No touch of her love to give save illumination
This dance of courtship she day, he night
Physical union certainly leads to ruination
In loneliness they orbit about in the endless heavens
Never to join as one, but separately remain
To rise and set, day night, light dark, at sixes and sevens
Ordered chaos, hide and seek, her passion will not wane
How long can this slow dance go on
It seems that one would tire
An eternal chase for both moon and sun
Conquest of love and unity their heart’s desire
Will they give in, a hunt neither can win
Destined for all of time to share this dance
But love endures all, is patient, kind, will not wear thin
Eons have they’ll stay suffering in wait, of their true love’s romance
