Dance Thee Swift
Dance thee swift on a midnight wind
And charm the stars above me
Call my name from a mystic's dream
I dare thee thrice to love me.
Sing amor through a cat's meow
I'll send my heart to find thee
Searching souls with each rain drop
Dancing a spell quite lively.
Hear my song through a cricket's choir
Born among marshes puddled
Softly through the reeds that swish
Our haunting song befuddled.
Won't you seek me bright as day
And love me darkly nightly
Won't your words my heart hold sway
'Till beauty seem unsightly.
If magic, love, and grief have names
Let us both forget them
Living life's pleasure and pains
And this moment treasured true-gem
Give me your chaos then hold still
Statuesque, mighty, eloquinn
Sailing boulders, desert's sandy fill
Dancing midnight's star loft wind.
